About the Contributors

Ethan Cohen, News Deputy Editor

As one of the news beat editors, my job is to edit all articles that pertain to recent events. I also write and pitch stories that would fall into the news category. Outside of Wordsworth, I enjoy skiing, watching sports, and playing tennis.

Emmie Huynh, Features Editor and Team Culture Manager

I'm Emmie, and this is my second year on staff! Outside of WordsWorth, I enjoy working on MFS's literary and arts magazine, Images, watching A24 films and rating them on Letterboxd, and listening to Beabadoobee.

Livia Kam, Associate EIC of Blog

Hi, I'm Livia Kam! I'm a junior and the Associate Editor-in-Chief of Blog, managing the WordsWorth website and posting each article. I also helped create our updated website as WordsWorth recently switched our web host to SNO. When I'm not running around asking for interviews, I serve in student government, edit for MFS' literary and arts magazine, and fence foil. You can catch me wandering around Rittenhouse Square in Philly after orchestra or listening to Beabadoobee, Tyler the Creator, and Maurice Ravel.

Zaydan Lalani, Associate EIC of Multimedia

Together, we lead WordsWorth, guiding our staffers and supporting them as they write articles and produce content. Outside of WordsWorth, I’m a part of MFS Model UN, and I love spending time with my family and friends and trying new foods.
