Emma was led to to herbalism in 2018, when she discovered her peace and healing was within the rhythms of the plant kingdom. Since then, she has been studying and working with plants— stocking up her own medicine cabinet with homemade tinctures, oils, salves, electuaries, and more for herself and community. She spent a couple years self studying on the Jersey Shore, amongst the blueberry and sassafras. A whispering of tropics brought her to Kaua’i, where she worked on a medicinal herb farm/apothecary, harvesting and making large scale products from the noni, soursop leaf, and turmeric and more. The desire to have a deeper understanding of healing the body with plants led her to study at the Blue Ridge School of Herbal Medicine, where she received her certificate as a Holistic Herbalist in 2023. Since then, she has been working as a production assistant of a local tincture business, and working with individuals creating personalized formulas & wellness plans. In her free time, she loves writing poetry, dancing, and cooking nourishing meals.
