Yena Nam, The Charge Associate Editor-in-Chief

Yena Nam is a junior at Emerson High School and serves as the Associate Editor-in-Chief for The Charge. This is her second year in Newspaper and looks forward to working together with other members and improving her writing and design skills. She can’t wait to continue on her comic publications and step into a new role where she will be supporting the Editor-in-Chief and collaborating with staff writers. When she is not working for The Charge, she loves to make art, watch movies with her family, and implement her art passion project called the Dreamers’ Palette. After high school, she plans to dig deeper into her interests in design, community service, and child welfare.
