I was fortunate to be raised by a politically active mother, who took me to my first protest at age five.
In 3rd grade I led my first organizing effort: a petition drive to change the school dress code and allow girls to wear pants to school.
Flash forward 50 years, and I’m a national leader in the movement for secure and transparent elections.
Much has happened in that interval. I’ve worked on issues from election security to racism, from women’s rights to LGBT liberation, and from pesticide poisoning to stopping the construction of a nuclear power plant.
I’ve lobbied in Congress, been arrested for protesting on a military base, chaired my city government’s efforts to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, and spoken to receptive audiences large and small.
My roles have included trainer, speaker, lobbyist, marcher, writer, database coordinator, webmaster, facilitator, banner painter, publicist, blogger, strategist, retreat leader, and more.
- I Believe ...
- That staying small and quiet may have served us once, yet now we must speak out
- That millions of people want to contribute to solving the world’s problems and simply don’t yet know how
- That nearly everyone underestimates her ability to lead
- That when you begin to walk, more of the path reveals itself
- That formal education is not a reflection of a person’s value or intelligence
- That leaders must find ways to replenish ourselves
- That Black Lives Matter
- That humans are, by nature, good
- That what other people think of you is none of your business
- That being ready is overrated
- That the world needs who you are right now

Should the account remain overdue 7 days after payment is due, access to program benefits will immediately be suspended. We understand that occasional financial challenges occur.

We doubled my email list in 30 days to over 4000 subscribers. With her skills and expertise, she’s become an important and valuable member of our team. Tasha Nesbitt Video Producer Co-Founder www.chrystabell.com Emily’s warmth and enthusiasm for helping businesses doing good in the world do even better financially is paralleled by her solid digital marketing expertise and technical know-how. I was impressed by her comfort level using her business skills in the non-profit sector. She had lots of great holistic ideas about how my organization could become more financially sustainable.
