About Emma Shipley
As the National Nature-Based Solutions Lead at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), I direct strategic initiatives across the Department of Defense to advance climate resilience through nature-based solutions. I bring a strong foundation in regulatory project management, having overseen complex permitting under the Clean Water Act and Rivers and Harbors Act. This dual expertise enables me to bridge innovative, science-based practices with regulatory compliance, ensuring sustainable and implementable outcomes. My core competencies include providing subject matter expertise to diverse stakeholders, leading interdisciplinary teams, and contributing to federal guidance and policy. I am passionate about advancing climate change adaptation, public service, and collaborative leadership in support of resilient communities and ecosystems.
