Emily Yu is an Editor-in-Chief of The Observatory and a Staff Reporter for the Science Survey. Emily likes journalism because she likes to stay updated on what is going on around the world and likes to express her opinions on multiple topics through writing. She also notes the importance of journalistic photography because photos bring out the essence of a story that cannot be expressed in words.

She hopes to study international business in college, while also continuing her journalistic interests and pursuing fluency in the Spanish language.
