Hi, my name is Emilia and this year I am a News Editor. I am in 5V. My hobbies include soccer, reading, writing, and drawing. I enjoy the outdoors and nature.
I speak French, Spanish and English fluently. I have a younger sister in third grade and I love desserts. My favorite author is Gordon Korman and I want to be a reporter at professional soccer games when I'm older. I also love biking, especially in France where you get a beautiful view. I am super excited to be an editor this year and write more articles.
