The first person I entered was a long ago ancestor, and now it says the tree was founded by her, not me.

I'm afraid there is no way to do this directly in Family Echo. You would have to export your family tree as a GEDCOM or FamilyScript file and then import it back into your account. At that point you can choose yourself as the founder of the tree.
