Hi! My name is Emma, and I am a sophomore. My favorite parts of news are podcasts and opinion stories. Outside of school, you can find me reading, playing tennis, or listening to Taylor Swift, specifically her album Evermore. I also love to travel and recently went to Maui, Hawaii. After I graduate, I plan to pursue a career in law.

Hey! During my third year on staff, my senior year, I have taken on the role of being Editor in Chief for Mountain Echo. My sophomore and junior year, I served as associate editor. Outside of school I enjoy hanging out with my best friend, exercising, watching Netflix, photography and working as a lifeguard and teaching swim lessons at the YMCA. After high school I plan to pursue a medical path, with the intent of being a nurse practitioner. I’m looking forward to this school year and seeing what it brings our way!
