Emma Trueba is a Chimes’ opinions writer. A senior in the Crowell School of Business and the Torrey Honors College from San Diego, California, she enjoys lending her skills in design, data synthesis and communication to print and content creation projects.

I’m a senior in the Crowell School of Business at Biola University earning my B.S. in Business Administration with an emphasis in Analytics. I’m supplementing my degree with a socratic-style education at the Torrey Honors College, adding classic texts of philosophy, religion, history, fiction, and poetry to my repertoire.

Creative projects give me life. I love blending my skills in communication, data analysis, and content creation to take on an assortment of projects that keep me well-rounded and always learning. Whether I’m creating a Tableau visualization, submitting myself as an actress for casting calls or designing a TikTok campaign, I strive to make the details of my work feel deeply personalized, winsome, and innovative.

Outside of work and school, you can find me thrifting vintage dresses (and then ripping them apart to rework them into a revamped version), putting on Kiki’s Delivery Service while I cook and tending to my ever-growing garden of hanging plants.
