Emily Zionts

Over the past decade Emily has shown that she is deeply committed to the promotion of global-wide positive political, social, and educational change. Each of her experiences in North America, Central America, Asia, South East Asia, and Africa have significantly enhanced her perspective as she learned, volunteered, traveled and taught. Most recently, she is proud to have earned a Masters of Peace Education (education for inner awareness, humane relationships, global citzenry, and planetary stewardship) from The United Nations Mandated University for Peace in Costa Rica. Teaching Global Issues at Woolman has been an excellent blend of her academic, employment, and life experiences. She also loves playing in rivers, improving her photography skills, playing mandolin, general silliness and spending time with her partner, Red. Emily's favorite part of this job is truly seeing the power and potential of youth as peacebuilders!
