Emily has over 1200 hours of training in Clinical Nutrition and Herbalism from the North American Institute of Medical Herbalism, and over 800 hours of training in massage therapy from the Santa Barbara Body Therapy Institute. She has been teaching holistic therapies since 2009 and is passionate about helping people through their own journey of health.


Emily is the founder of the Artemisia Academy of Herbal Arts & Healing, a new school for community & land based herbal education in Santa Barbara, CA.  She has been teaching holistic health for over 10 years, including subjects such as Nutrition, Anatomy &  Pathology at the Santa Barbara Body Therapy Institute and Medicinal Plant Walks at the Santa Barbara Botanic Gardens.


Emily prides herself on using all organic oils, and only organically grown or ethically wild crafted western herbs. Emily believes that the magic of the plants comes from the connections we have with them. As herbs are used to heal people, people in turn help heal the plants by growing gardens and protecting ecosystems.
