Over the next while, I’ll be introducing you to the women on my team. Given that it’s Movember, I thought I’d start with Emma (She’s the one on the left. And yes, it's permanent.).
Emma’s currently a second year Visual Arts student at the University of Victoria who dabbles in disguise and has awesome key chains. May you love her too!
From Emma
What's your #1 go to song to get pumped up by?
Currently, Florence + The Machine - Dog Days Are Over
What's the last book you read, and would you recommend it to others?
The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels (for school, not pleasure). I suppose I'd recommend it on the grounds of it's classic nature, and ongoing, globe-sweeping influence. Best paired with rainy days, dimly lit coffee shops, and strong espresso.
What's one teeny thing that you do to make your life more eco-friendly?
I buy locally grown, seasonal vegetables from a grocer named John in Cook St Village. (By day he is an elderly grocer, by night he is a musician, performing in the nearby Serious Coffee.) Peels, cores, and forgotten-in-the-fridge bits get composted.
If you had a little extra cash, what would you treat yourself to?
Breakfast at Lady Marmalade, a weekend getaway to Seattle, or Dan Mangan tickets.
Where do you find grounding and connect with the sacred in your life?
On the beach, in the forest, at the kitchen stove, in the garden, in the company of children... Wandering & breathing deep of salty air, marveling at nature, cooking & sharing meals with people I love, nurturing growth & harvesting, playing & learning.
What one food will you not eat?
Jello. It freaks me out. The way it looks/moves/smells/feels/tastes/slides down your throat... By far it is the creepiest food.
Knock, Knock ...
Who's there? A little old lady. A little old lady who? I didn't know you could yodel.

Which DMU products do you work on?
It's been a variety - but mostly Teething Bonbons, and soon some sales work!
