Rhea Gupta is the inaugural WiRE Juniors Ambassador and a passionate advocate for climate action. At just six years old, Rhea's unexpected moment of bravery and curiosity ignited the very program she now leads.

Ambassador Journey: The Inspiration

The idea for the WiRE Junior Ambassadors program was born from Rhea's memorable appearance at a WiRE networking event in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. While her mother moderated a panel of high-level energy professionals, Rhea—at the tender age of six—fearlessly rose to ask a question about energy in Ontario. Her palpable passion and confidence earned her a fervent applause from the crowd of 100 people, marking her as an undeniable emerging voice.

Impact and Recognition

Since being named the first WiRE Junior Ambassador, Rhea has become a sought-after speaker. Her on-stage presence reached a notable peak at Electricity Human Resources Canada’s (EHRC) prestigious Agents of Change Event, where she received a standing ovation after moderating an engaging chat with two of Ontario’s emerging energy leaders, Haida Liu and Anjula Mary Antonis.

Rhea’s infectious passion for energy and making the world a better place, combined with her undeniable intelligence, makes her a growing force to be reckoned with—a powerful role model for children around the globe.

Personal Achievements
