Hi everyone, my name is Emma! I am a History major, a Public Health minor, and an avid writer! I have been part of MHC since sophomore year! I am very excited to continue advocating for mental health on campus, as I believe creating safe spaces, spreading resources, and amplifying voices can create positive change.
