As the curator behind the magazine’s Family and Wellness newsletters and winner of multiple Parenting Media Association and Missouri Press Association awards, Emily has her finger on the pulse of everything kid-friendly and health-savvy in St. Louis. A Mizzou alum, Emily kicked off her career with St. Louis Magazine as an intern in 2014. From there, she worked for magazines such as Chicago Parent and Restaurant Business and led local publications such as Feast Magazine, Ladue News, ABODE, and St. Louis Best Bridal. In 2023, she returned home to SLM. Connect with Emily at [email protected].
