Emma Bartlett is a 17-year-old senior starting her first semester in journalism. Bartlett spends her time between living in Shallotte with her dad and Calabash with her mom on different weeks. 

Bartlett is starting her 4th season of softball at West Brunswick. “I’ve really enjoyed playing ball every year here, to me softball is “my sport.” I’ve always been passionate about it because it’s just something I really take pride in.” Bartlett is also currently in her 4th season of volleyball here, she enjoys volleyball because of all of the bonds and memories that come with it.

Bartlett is currently interested in going to school for physical therapy. “Physical therapy sparks my interests  because rehabilitation is a big part of people’s life and they need humble people to help them through things and it brings me joy knowing I can help them.”

In Emma’s spare time outside of school, she enjoys going to the beach, fishing, hunting, and spending time with her friends and family.

Bartlett decided to join journalism to get more involved. “I wanted to join journalism to interact with more people, get to know the school body, and get more involved.”
