Bio

As Director of Operations, Emma provides support and direction to keep the Integrated Innovation Institute's educational mission and goals on target. In this role, she connects often with III staff, faculty, and students across our campuses in Pittsburgh and Silicon Valley. 

Integral in the development of the Institute's online programs, Emma regularly collaborates with enrolled online students to assist them in evaluating the certificate and online degrees options available.

Emma has been with the institute since its launch in 2013 and is inspired by the CMU community. Everyone's excitement to learn, make, and build motivates her to bring out the very best in herself

Previously, Emma held various roles in admissions and academic advising at Juniata College and the University of Pittsburgh. She grew up in Hollidaysburg, PA, but after living in the steel city off and on for more than ten years, she considers Pittsburgh her home. Outside of work, she loves traveling with her family and spending time with their two dogs.
