Emma Neslund
Fall 2017 Session
Emma Neslund is a first-year poetry MFA student at the University of Montana. Originally from Alaska, she graduated from Whitman College in 2016 with a bachelor of arts in French Language and Literature and a minor in biology. She spent last year teaching English in France. She has written since she was little, but only ever around the edges, so she’s thrilled to make it official this year. Her goal list includes: write a song, do a pull-up, learn self-defense, and play her harp every day.
Emma Neslund worked with the poet Tasha Cotter.
