Emily works at the intersection of science, medicine, and spirituality. Her writing engages the vocabulary of ecology, evolution, theology, and literature to ask fundamental questions: How do we "know" the world around us? What symbols and stories help us describe and witness to the diversity of life? What does it mean to be a self?
Her creative nonfiction has appeared in The Atlantic, The Christian Century, Yale Scientific, Yale Literary Magazine, and Yale Distilled, among others. She is working on her first book, a collection of nonfiction essays about selfhood, belonging, and resilience (Simon & Schuster, expected summer 2027).
Emily earned her Master's of Arts in Religion & Literature from Yale Divinity School (2023), her Master's of Science in Integrative Biology from Oregon State University (2020), and her Bachelor's of Science in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology from Yale (2018). Emily is a priest in the Episcopal Church, and she currently works as Associate Rector at All Souls Episcopal Parish in Berkeley, CA.
