Emily grew up outdoors and loves cloud gazing. After living in many states, she moved to the Pacific Northwest and attended graduate school at the University of Washington.  There she received her M.Ed. and a certification in Environment, Education and Community from IslandWood. She has always brought her passion for people and protecting the environment together.  If you can't find her-- she is certain to be adventuring on the trails: smelling juniper cones, cloud gazing, or riding bikes with her two spirited children.

I am an educator in School & Youth Programs at the Virginia squarium and Marine science center in Virginia Beach. I live in Sandbridge, Virginia, and I’m also volunteering at our Back Bay wildlife refuge. I have recently completed a course with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and I think the MWEE 101 will be a great learning opportunity for me to incorporate practices, new information, and conservation efforts in our programming for students.
 

I am an Assistant Professor of Environmental Education at Florida Gulf Coast University. I hold a PhD in Science Education from NC State University, along with master’s degrees in Biodiversity, and Environment and Development. I specialize in informal environmental learning and have worked extensively with both urban and rural communities in India. My research focuses on understanding the motivations behind environmental social movements and using social analysis to explore how learning and motivation spread within communities. I currently teach courses in environmental education and environmental philosophies at FGCU.

I have been teaching nature and natural history for 50 years and am the winner of the New England Environmental Alliance's award for Non-Formal Education.
