Throughout her academic and professional career, Emma has gained experience in environmental education, environmental policy, carbon mitigation programs, GIS, and ecological modelling. She has also conducted fieldwork on a range of species—including corals in Bermuda, birds in Sweden, and sharks in Nova Scotia—building strong skills in data collection, analysis, collaboration, and communication.
