Emily (she/her) is a student at Harvard University. She is involved with #GoodforMEdia because she wants to decrease the stigma around discussing mental health.

She tries to use social media in a positive way to enhance her mental health and wellness, and wants to help other kids navigate the balance between social media and overall well being.
