Grace Ellzey

玉龙平

Born in Shenzhen and adopted as a baby, Grace has lived in LA ever since. While she never learned Chinese, her love for Chinese culture has always been strong—whether it’s watching Chinese TV shows on YouTube or enjoying meals at her favorite Chinese restaurant. She’s proud of her birth country and where she comes from!
Serving as Miss Friendship has given Grace the opportunity to be a leader and proudly represent the Los Angeles Chinese Chamber of Commerce, while upholding the rich values and history of Chinatown’s vibrant community.
When a friend suggested she compete in Miss LA Chinatown, Grace saw it as a meaningful way to represent the thousands of children adopted from China, just like her. It’s been an honor to serve on the 2024 Court alongside inspiring women who share her passion for leadership, community, and friendship.
