NAME: Emily Williams (EH-mih-lee) YEAR: Junior MAJOR: Government & International Politics | Minor in Legal Studies and Women and Gender Studies HOMETOWN: Palm City, FL SIGN: Pisces FAVORITE EVENTS: POI, DUO Emily is excited to be swapping out her sunshine state for a place where seasons actually take place! She is so happy to be a part of the GMU forensics team and loves being at mason because of the amazing political opportunities and because she looks great in green. When not participating in speech (let’s be real, never) Emily can be found studying, looking at pictures of her 3 dogs, hanging out with her sorority, or sitting in the 24 hour Starbucks late at night listening to Lorde.

NAME: Eleni Mercer (Uh-LEN-ee) YEAR: Sophomore MAJOR: Government & International Politics HOMETOWN: Jupiter, Florida SIGN: Virgo FAVORITE EVENT: POE Eleni is pumped to be a GMU forensics team member! Originally from the North, Eleni is glad to be back somewhere where the leaves change colors. When they aren’t holding a binder, you can find Eleni googling bigfoot theories or thrifting super high-waisted pants. They love to organize, then color-code, then reorganize their room, canvas for local candidates, and pretend like they’re living in a music video when listening to Taylor Swift’s ‘Evermore’ album. |
