Emily Elks

Emily grew up in Nottingham and moved to York in 2019 to study Maths at the University of York. Since graduating she spent some time as a church intern before starting at YoYo in May 2023.

Whilst she might not be doing maths as much as she used to, Emily still loves chatting about all things science and answering big questions about the world that we live in. She loves learning from all the children she meets in school, from the youngest to the oldest!
