Her writing is then published in informational pamphlets, so she have experience in both digesting and summarizing complicated material, as well as in conveying that material at a level non-industry readers will understand.

Lastly, Emma has written creatively for years. She won an American Voices medal in the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, and was later published in a collection of winning works. She has pieces published or forthcoming in Discourse, 49 Pages, and The Adroit Journal. This passion in creative writing led to her involvement in several literary magazines, most notably The Blueshift Journal, where she's worked for three years. Within Blueshift, she worked her way up from an intern position to Prose Editor. Her responsibilities include managing submissions, choosing content, line editing, and producing creative non-fiction for Blueshift's blog.
