Before becoming a teacher, Brianna was a zookeeper at the Houston Zoo. She helped hand raise baby giraffes and a baby anteater. She also tended to and trained multiple hoofed animals such as okapi, giraffe, bongo, rhinos, and tapirs. Brianna currently teaches chemistry and biology. She is passionate about her students making connections with science and how it applies to the real world. In her free time Brianna enjoys the outdoors with camping, hiking, and kayaking. She also enjoys traveling around the world, reading, knitting, and spending quality time with her friends and family. 

Julie has been with EWS since 2008. Prior to her tenure at EWS, Julie taught biology, biochemistry, chemistry and anatomy and physiology at a private Catholic high school in Massachusetts. Julie has been teaching for the past 15 years and has taught every age group from seventh to twelfth grade. Julie graduated from Stonehill College, where she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology while competing in Division II cross-country and track for four years. Here at EWS, Julie has coached cross-country, led our sixth through eighth grade advisory program and currently serves as the seventh grade team leader. When she’s not teaching, Julie loves hanging out with her husband and son, traveling, running and cooking.

Louisa joined EWS in 2014. She currently teaches eighth grade Integrated Physics and Chemistry. Louisa graduated from the University of Houston with a Bachelor’s of Science degree and a minor in theater. Prior to moving to Houston with her family in 1986, Louisa lived in Arizona, New Mexico, and Florida: Tucson, Arizona continues to have the biggest pull at her heart. Luckily, her parents live in Tucson so she and her family get to visit often. Prior to working at Emery/Weiner, Louisa taught at Roberts Elementary in Houston, Texas. She worked as a classroom teacher in fourth and fifth grade for several years before she and her family moved to New York. They returned back in 2008 (just in time for Ike) and Louisa returned to Roberts Elementary and became the school's kindergarten through fifth grade science lab teacher. It was then that she found her love for teaching science; finding ways to foster the excitement, interest, & love of science for all ages! Louisa was adopted as an infant by the most amazing parents ever, and recently, with the support of them, found her biological siblings and went from having one brother to ten siblings in total! She loves watching her newfound family bond with her children, Ciro, Luca, and Clara. On her downtime she loves to read, run, binge watch Netflix and Amazon original series, reconfigure her furniture in her house, and eat sushi with her friends. She looks forward to being at Emery for a long time to come!
