Emma Talebzadeh

My name is Emma Talebzadeh and I am going into my fourth year working at More Than Words. I am passionate about creating spaces where young women of color feel seen, confident and have access to opportunities for growth.

As a first-generation woman of Middle Eastern background, I want young women to build strong self-esteem within their identify, never feeling the need to blend with the majority or silence their voice. I look forward to using my lived experience and passion to support the future generation to feel confident and fearless.
