Emily Files

Education Reporter

Emily has been reporting on Milwaukee-area education for WUWM since 2018.

She began as a reporter for KRBD in Ketchikan, Alaska where she once covered a bear interrupting a high school cross country race. She then worked as a reporter and eventually news director at KHNS Radio in Haines, where she reported on a man in a bear costume harassing actual bears. Aside from the occasional bear story, Emily covered the local politics, tribal issues, hunting, fishing and, of course, education.

Emily is originally from the Chicago area. She studied journalism at Emerson College in Boston, where she reported her very first radio stories for college station WERS.
