Racket

Emily Christiansen is a sophomore journalism major with a media production minor at Bethel University in St. Paul. She is usually singing or shredding chords on her 2010 Korean-made single-cut Paul Reed Smith electric guitar. She enjoys telling stories about unique and genuine people—the quirkier the better—and likes getting personal with the sources she interviews to discover the good, bad, and ugly details of each of their lives. She is a writer, social media editor, and podcaster for Bethel University&#8217;s student run newspaper The Clarion. She is seeking a career in writing/reporting and broadcast journalism.
