ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Emily Nichols
Hello, everyone! My name is Emily Nichols. I am 25 years old and was born and raised in Huntington Beach, California. I am currently a senior studying Marriage and Family Studies at Brigham Young University-Idaho, and will be graduating in July. Some things I love doing are singing, cooking, swimming, hiking, camping, and reading. There are a lot of things that make me happy, but one of many is that I find great joy in helping those in need. I try to be a light for those that are surrounded in darkness, and it brings me so much happiness to see people I care about overcome their struggles. (You're included in that!) I hope this blog that Karina and I have created can help you through whatever you're going through. Enjoy!
Karina Harris
Hello everyone, my name is Karina Harris! I am 22 years old and a senior at Brigham Young University-Idaho studying Marriage and Family. I was born and raised in Southern California where there is perfect weather all year long :) I am married to a wonderful man and have a beautiful 7 month old baby girl named Amara Rae. She brings so much light and happiness to my life. I love to dance, sing, draw, and binge watch Netflix shows with my hubby. My passion is studying relationships and marriages. I find them very interesting to me. My goal is to get my PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy with an emphasis in trauma and child abuse. I believe hope is never lost no matter what a person has been through.
