Description

Hello! My name is Emmi. The past few years have been difficult for me, and I’m learning how to grieve while figuring out what I want in life.

I’m someone with a lot of passions and interests, and I’ve always had trouble choosing just one. I’m very curious and love learning. I studied art and ecology in university, as well as carpentry in college. Some of my interests include sewing, printmaking, pottery, illustration, film photography, baking, nature, education, animal care, yoga, etc.

Most of my work experience has been in education, especially nature/outdoor and arts education. I’ve worked with children of many ages, and teaching and learning in natural environments is something I truly love and where I feel most connected to myself.

I also have a very special connection with animals—a bond I’ve realized is unique as I’ve gotten older. I truly love all animals so much, and while I’m not currently in a place in life where I can live with all the animals I’d like to, I’m always excited to care for and connect with them wherever I can, and feel very confident in my abilities with them.

I’m generally a bit quiet and to myself when you first get to know me, but I value connecting with people in meaningful ways. I’m hardworking, curious, and creative, and I’m always looking to learn more. I consider myself compassionate and empathetic, and I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty or lend a helping hand wherever it’s needed.

I’m looking forward to possibly meeting and connecting with you! 🙂
