I’m also a Rox-THON Entertainment Leader and an Equal Rights Advocacy Activity/Inclusivity Chair. In my free time, I enjoy listening to music, going to concerts, writing, shopping, and spending time with family. My future plans include going to college to study Journalism and move to New York to write for Rolling Stone Magazine.”
“Emily is goal oriented, dedicated, and a great friend! She has an interesting outlook on life and always brings a mood into the room.” Nathalie Rivera, Junior
¨Emily has been an integral part of the Equal Rights Advocacy Club from freshman year on! Because of her active involvement attending meetings, participating in events, and her compassionate and empathetic nature- she was voted to be the Inclusivity Officer for the ERA club this year! Emily is always bright and cheery, and is ready to lend a helping hand at a moment’s notice. She is a responsible and dedicated student. She makes the world a better place!¨- Ms. Christansen, Teacher
“Emily is a great addition to the Roxbury Review team! She always brings great ideas and a positive attitude to class and meetings. On top of that she is also an amazing addition to the Equal Rights Advocacy club! She works hard and is always looking for ways to help others. She is a great friend and very deserving of Student of the Week!” -Katie Caron, Senior
