Welcome, Let’s get to know each other!
Hi there, I’m Emily! I’m a marine scientist from Appalachia working on coastal resilience to climate change.
The world is changing, and I am committed to telling stories and supporting systems that imagine hopeful futures for it!
Marine science is fun!
I’m currently pursuing my PhD at Oregon State University as a first year graduate student in Integrative Biology. My work focuses on developing flexible and long-lasting ecology-based solutions to the increasingly variable impacts of climate change.
But wait, I make music too!
In addition to my work in marine science, I also write, produce, and perform music. You can find some of my previous work on the award-winning Science Fiction Audio Drama, ROGUEMAKER.
Stories Matter!
