From January 2021
Smithfield High School, USA
Hello! My name is Emma Ferraro and I’m currently a junior at Smithfield High School in Rhode Island. Being a student during such a difficult time, it’s certainly been a challenge finding activities to immerse myself in that revolve around my biggest passion of epidemiology. Thus, I am beyond excited to expand my awareness of my favorite topics with GSYJ, as well as broaden my horizons on subjects that I don’t know as much about. As the head of the Editing Department, I hope to not only grow and share my knowledge, but also connect with this community of people that that have interests either similar or different to my own.
