About Emily

Hello! I'm a full-time journalist based in West Seattle looking to make a little extra cash. As a professional writer and editor, my greatest strength is in explaining difficult concepts and teaching others what I know. Before focusing solely on my journalism career, all of my part-time work focused on kids. As a teenager I worked as a grading and teaching assistant at a local tutoring center, and on weekends sold tickets and snacks at a family-focused pumpkin patch. In college, I tutored kids as a volunteer with a Houston-based nonprofit that served immigrant and refugee families. With my skills and experience, I'd be a great fit to help pre-teens, teenagers or college students with English reading and writing, history, social studies, political science and economics.
