The Prowl

Emma Johnson

Emma Johnson, Associate Editor

Emma Johnson is in her junior year and started out as an opinion editor for The Prowl first semester before transitioning into the Associate Editor position. Because she made the conscious decision to have no social life, Emma tends to be involved with an array of activities, which is just another way of saying her calendar is always full. 

But even though her schedule is “predictable,” this results in her deceptively fooling friends that she has her life together, when in fact, she doesn’t. Some would even go as far as to say that she has reached a point in her life that her ability to seem so natural is unnerving. 

“I could be wrong, but I think Emma goes to bed at 8:00 p.m.,” former Editor in chief Aiden Chandler said. “Again, I could be wrong about that.” 

If you ever need to find Emma, your best guess is looking for her on a soccer pitch, in the library, or heading in the direction where a group of kids are shouting at her not to eat that piece of cheese because she’s lactose intolerant. 

P.S. That photo is when toddler Emma realized Winnie the Pooh was going to her table.
