Emily Bunker Peterson

I am an Americorps*VISTA member serving as the Resource Coordinator at Boulder County CareConnect in Boulder, Colorado until March 2014. Next, I will move on to be the Annual Fund Manager at The Gathering Place in Denver.

I am passionate about water security and its interplay with global issues such as climate change and industrialization. I am extremely interested in how developing nations-- especially in Latin America-- affect the international stage. I plan to pursue a masters degree in international development and a career with a water-focused NGO.
