About Me

I am a freshman engineering student currently deciding between Environmental and Mechanical Engineering at the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University.

Name Pronounciation

My name is pronounced exactly how it looks so I never know how to answer these questions. "Emily" like the million other Emily's you've probably met at Duke and "Walker" like the English word meaning a person who walks.
