Emily Quinn is a native Southern Californian with a passion for art and everything Italian. She is currently working towards a major in Journalism and a minor in Italian Studies. Among her future plans, she hopes to complete part of her studies abroad in Italy. Emily has enthusiastically embraced the collaboration with the oldest Italian-American newspaper in California, and has already published two articles revealing new facets of the Italian community in Orange County. In Emily’s words: “writing for L’Italo-Americano has improved my knowledge of the journalistic world as well as my knowledge of Italian culture. I am very excited to continue learning in both areas.”
