District 12

  Moksh Gupta

Hello, New York State FBLA! My name is Moksh Gupta, and I’m incredibly honored to serve as your District 12 State Vice President for the 2026–2027 school year. I’m a rising senior at Williamsville East High School, and I’ve been involved in FBLA for the past four years.

 

When I first joined FBLA as a freshman, I honestly had no idea what to expect. I signed up because I wanted to learn more about business and leadership, but I never imagined how much the organization would shape my high school experience. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to serve as my chapter’s Parliamentarian/Events Manager, Treasurer, and now President. I’ve also competed at the State Leadership Conference every year, earning Top 5 finishes in Introduction to Business Concepts, Introduction to Programming, Coding & Programming, and International Business, while qualifying for and attending the National Leadership Conference for the past three years. More than the awards, though, FBLA has helped me grow as a leader, step outside my comfort zone, build lifelong friendships, and gain experiences I’ll always remember.

 

As your District 12 State Vice President, I want to help make this an exciting and memorable year for every member in our district. My goal is to strengthen communication between our chapters, encourage collaboration, and help every member feel connected to the opportunities FBLA offers. I hope to organize engaging district meetings with interactive leadership workshops, competitive event preparation sessions, networking opportunities, and guest speakers from the business community. I also want to increase participation at both the State and National Leadership Conferences by helping members feel more confident and prepared to compete. Most importantly, I want to support both new and returning members, celebrate the accomplishments of our chapters, and create an environment where everyone feels welcomed, encouraged, and inspired to grow as leaders.

 

Outside of FBLA, I like to stay involved in just about everything I can. I serve as the Student Representative on the Williamsville Board of Education and participate in a variety of activities, including the Medical Outreach Club, Science Olympiad, National Honor Society, Model UN, Mock Trial, varsity volleyball, and Wind Ensemble as a saxophonist. I also enjoy volunteering throughout my community and conducting scientific research, which has inspired me to pursue a future career in the medical field. No matter what I’m involved in, I enjoy challenging myself, meeting new people, and finding ways to make a positive impact.

 

I’m beyond excited to work alongside this amazing team of State Officers and meet members from across New York this year. I can’t wait to see everything District 12 accomplishes, and I hope to meet many of you at district events, the State Leadership Conference, and beyond. If you ever have questions, ideas, or just want to say hello, don’t hesitate to reach out. Here’s to an incredible year of learning, leadership, and success in NYS FBLA!
