During successful career as a software developer, Emma discovered Open Source, and was inspired by the potential of developing software, and participating in communities connected by common purpose and mission. Her experience as a contributor to many projects including Drupal, WordPress and Firefox inspired her to help others get involved – and thus reshaped career focus to doing just that at Mozilla with a focus on diversity & inclusion.

Emma leads D&I strategy development for Mozilla’s communities, and lives in Sooke, BC with her family.
