Emilia Azar is a senior Professional Writing & Rhetoric (PWR) major and Psychology minor. Her biggest loves in life are travel and writing – which she hopes to incorporate into whatever job field she finds herself in after graduation – so this class was a perfect fit. On Elon University’s campus, she has further expanded her passion to include advocacy & awareness for mental health. This past summer, she founded Active Minds at Elon, a student-run organization that empowers others to talk about mental health. Additionally, she is a Writing Center Consultant for Elon’s Writing Center and the External Philanthropy Chair for Kappa Delta Sorority. What is she always doing? Listening to music in the background of her busy, but passion-filled life. Current tastes range from Trevor Hall to the Rent Movie Soundtrack to … of course ladies … Luke Bryan.

Emilia is a part of the Mountain Region group and is very excited to share this life-changing experience with you through written pieces, photographs, and videos.
