In her most recent study, Em looked into the effects of mindfulness on emotional labor, such as depression and anxiety, to those in the general public. With an interest in the medical field, Em hopes to continue this research, furthering it to focus primarily on the Emergency Medical Service community and other high-stress medical jobs. Em hopes to become a cardiovascular surgeon and works as an Emergency Medical Technician. With this background and experience, Em hopes to use what she learns through her research to support not only herself through her medical journey but also those around her as she progresses.
