Emma Gombkötő

Emma is most interested in how we can truly connect with one another—honestly and without taboos. As a photojournalist, she learned to see the people behind the stories and how communities often achieve more than expected. At HiSchool, she continues this approach by building an educational ecosystem where students, teachers, companies, and professionals meet. The goal is for school to be not just about curriculum, but also about community, inspiration, and opportunity. Emma works here because she believes education is a shared responsibility. If young people learn to connect with each other, themselves, and the world, it leads not only to happier school years but also to a more open and collaborative society.
