“Emily is such a strong leader and it was an absolute pleasure to work for her at Bridge. She is focused, driven and compassionate. Emily is one of those leaders that people want to work with and for, she expresses a vision that is inspiring and motivating, she shows up authentically every day, and she is not afraid to take on the hard problems. Emily managed to keep the many pieces moving required to execute on the ambitious strategy that she laid out for Bridge. She ensured that the community, her staff, the sponsors and the many volunteers always felt that their needs were served. Emily managed her team collaboratively, with positivity and empathy. She provides clear direction and empowers her team to take ownership of their projects. Emily was a wealth of information when it came to discussing organizational management and agile methodologies. On top of all that, she is fun to work with, and if I had the chance I would work with her again in a heartbeat.”
