About EMILY
Emily joined the IWJV team in 2020 as the Communications Specialist for the Water 4 Program. Her role involves producing media that tells the story of emergent wetland habitats on private lands in the Intermountain West. Emily is fascinated by connections and how information, communication, and storytelling can influence human-to-human and human-to-landscape relationships. Her years as a guide in Northwestern Montana left her with a desire to learn more about land use and conservation from other perspectives, sending her back to school to earn a Master’s in Environmental Management from Western Colorado University in 2020. She also holds a B.A. in Journalism from the University of Montana. In her free time, she is outside with her husband and dogs exploring the mountains and sagebrush around their home in Polaris, Montana.
