She is an active mentor and coach for junior team members throughout the firm, including as a formal mentor and career coach for new staff and early career managers. She prioritizes developing a well-rounded, people-first environment and enhanced team member engagement.
She currently serves on the finance committee at her high school and speaks about the accounting career path to the next generation. As of May 2024, Emily is a proud member of the CalCPA Board of Directors, where she hopes to facilitate positive change in California’s accounting community.
