Emily Schario

Emily Schario is the head of content and director of multimedia storytelling for The B-Side, a weekday newsletter for young Bostonians covering everything from Beacon Hill to Bennifer. As B-Side’s co-founder, she helped create the brand from the ground up, growing the product to nearly 50,000 newsletter subscribers and 80,000 followers across Instagram and TikTok.

On any given day, she could be writing a story about speed dating, making a TikTok about rat tattoos, or turning a news story into a meme. It's hard work, but someone's gotta do it! When Emily isn’t writing about the coolest things to do in Boston, you can usually spot her eating a Fenway Frank in a bleacher seat or filming herself at dinner (It’s for work! She promises!).

In 2025, The B-Side won the New England Newspaper & Press Association for Best Newsletter and was an INMA Global Media Awards Finalist for Best Initiative To Bolster Next-Generation Readership. She was also nominated for a 2025 New England Emmy Award in the "Light Feature, Multiple Reports" category for B-Side. Emily also received a New England Emmy nomination in 2022 for her local news explainer TikToks during her four-year stint at GBH News in Boston.
