With a passion for accomplishment and a drive for improvement, Emily is the very definition of an excellent Account Director. She comes to Hey Now! Media after four and a half years with the Anti-Defamation League as the Education Director responsible for all regional educational programming. Prior to this position, she worked with AmeriCorps, lived in a geodesic dome in Israel, spent time with both the Mayor’s Office and Project Interfaith in Omaha  (where she’s from), working to improve diversity based outcomes for the city, and is a proud graduate of the University of Kansas.

When she’s not methodically checking tasks off her to-do list, Emily can be found trying new recipes, traveling to foreign lands, and playing a mean game of tennis. Fun Fact: She’s Anne’s sister! Can anyone say FAMILY BUSINESS?!
