Emily recently accepted the role of Vice President and Chief Development Officer at Erlanger Health.

During her ime with American Heart, Emily and her team successfully raised over $22 million to fund essential research, education, and community-based initiatives.

In her current position, she aims to enhance the philanthropic efforts of the Erlanger Foundation, furthering the health system’s mission of providing compassionate patient care.
Emily's achievements have been recognized with multiple awards from the American Heart Association, including the Long Distance Runner award, Outstanding Fundraising Performance award, and the State Advocacy Collaboration award.

Additionally, she served on the advisory board for UTC’s Master of Public Health program and was honored as one of the “30 under 30” in CityScope magazine and featured on the cover of HealthScope Magazine.
