Get to Know Me Further
Hi, I’m EmmaLi! I’m based in Chapel Hill, North Carolina where I grew up sailing around the outer banks and hiking the Appalachian Mountains. My love for the outdoors motivated me to pursue research projects centered around climate change, and I’m excited to join the team at EPIC to inform more efficient and equitable environmental progress. In my free time, I love running, rock climbing, mountain biking, sailing, and windsurfing whenever I get the chance.
