Emma graduated with a degree in Human Ecology from College of the Atlantic. Following school, Emma spent her free time volunteering for environmental organizations while working as a video editor for small businesses. After the 2016 election, Emma made the decision to become a community organizer because she could not imagine putting her efforts anywhere else. What started with a personal testimony at a city hall meeting, grew to participating in the biggest non violent direct action in New Hampshire since the 70s two years later. Emma spent 6 years working 350 New Hampshire working to close the last remaining coal plants in New England and fighting for utility justice. She now works as an Associate Director for Resource Organizing Project supporting resource mobilization for base-building organizations. When she’s not working Emma enjoys kickboxing, reading, and exploring the New Hampshire wilderness.
