Emilia Robinson, Packaging World Outstanding Packaging Science Senior, Spring 2025

Emilia Robinson is an Honors senior Packaging Science major with a minor in Business Administration at Clemson University. She began her industry journey as a Technical Packaging Co-op at Nestlé Professional, where she led sustainability initiatives and fast-tracked development projects in the food service industry. She discovered her passion for cosmetics during her most recent summer at Bobbi Brown in New York City, getting to own a brand package development project for a high-impact eyeshadow stick line extension. Her favorite part of being a student at Clemson is working as a Packaging Production and Prototyping Intern at the Harris A. Smith Prototyping lab, where she has the opportunity to interact, influence, and learn from a variety of different students at various levels in their coursework. Robinson says she's excited to launch her career in the packaging industry post-graduation and is deeply grateful to her professors and peers who have shaped her Clemson experience.
