Profile:
​
Emma studies a Bachelor of Accounting Co-Op, and in her free time you will find her at the beach doing an ocean swim, surfing, trying out a new Mexican restaurant or going to sporting matches with her family.
Emma’s female role model is Jacinda Ardern, who continuously inspires her with her empathetic leadership. Emma greatly admires Jacinda’s open-minded nature, paired with her ability to demonstrate compassion and strength in a high-pressure job.

Emma’s favourite thing about WiB are the many opportunities to meet like-minded women who are passionate about business. She says, “Not only will you meet other university students from a wide variety of degrees, there are also many networking opportunities with our awesome sponsor companies!”
