About me
Hi! I’m Emma, an applied aquatic biologist based in Victoria, BC, Canada. With extensive experience in both the lab and field, I specialize in coastal and riparian ecology, and have a deep love for the unique ecosystems and organisms found along the West Coast
I aspire to create a tangible impact on ecosystem functioning and species recovery by finding practical solutions to current challenges posed by climate change and human activities. Through my work, I strive to contribute to the preservation of biodiversity and promote environmental stewardship, ensuring that our ecosystems thrive for generations to come
