Today we welcome Emily, our Programs Coordinator at the Agua Hedionda Lagoon and pioneer of our Preschool Playdates Program. Preschool Playdates is offered Monday - Friday 9 am to 1 pm and includes environmental education and literacy, a craft made from recycled materials, outdoor play, and more!

Emily grew up in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and her love for the great outdoors developed at a young age. The warm weather and ocean drew Emily to Southern California, where she attended Chapman University. She received her B.A. in Integrated Education Studies with an emphasis in Leadership Studies and a Minor in Environmental Science. She also studied abroad in Turks and Caicos Island, where she studied marine science and tourism. Her passion for outdoor education and marine science drew her to the AHLF Discovery Center for their Academy of Environmental Stewardship.
