Biography

Emily is a passionate advocate for global health, science, and innovation with nearly a decade of experience in policy and resource mobilization. From 2018 to 2022, she led the U.S. advocacy portfolio of the Global Health Technologies Coalition where she drove the launch of the Bipartisan Global Health Research and Development Congressional Working Group, developed a new policy proposal to secure U.S. foreign assistance resources for biomedical innovation for poverty-related neglected diseases, and co-chaired the Global Health Council’s Budget Roundtable at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. She previously led maternal and child health advocacy at World Vision U.S. and grassroots advocacy at the Sabin Vaccine Institute’s Global Network for Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) and END7 Campaign. Emily developed her interests in global health and development as an undergraduate at the University of Notre Dame, where she spent nearly as much time running the first student group dedicated to the fight against NTDs as she did her degrees in psychology and theology. Outside of work, you can often find Emily experimenting in the kitchen, sampling natural wine, or attempting to keep up with pop culture on TikTok.
