Brief Biographical Sketch:
Hi! My name is Emma Trotter, and I'm a junior at Stanford this year. I'm studying English literature with a concentration in the years from 1750 to 1900. I write for The Stanford Daily, where I'm also the managing editor of the Features section. I live in Roble Hall, one of the largest dorms on campus, where I'm the resident writing tutor. As you can see, I love writing! I'm fascinated by the various ways in which different people communicate different ideas to different audiences, and I love to talk about it. After graduation, I'm considering careers in teaching, tutoring, publishing, journalism, law, or any combination of the above.
