Hello

Emily was one of the first Hispanic Women to infiltrate Wall Street, where

she trained MBA Executives at Goldman Sachs in presentation and sales

skills. In the 90’s, Emily was instrumental in launching MTV for Latin America. Emily went on to

launch 10 other networks including Nickelodeon, E! Entertainment, HBO Latin America and

founded her own media company.

Emily is the Author of “99 Tips and Inspirations on Starting a Business” and was featured on Wall

Street Radio. With a passion to empower women and motivate them on rebuilding their lives, many

of her programs have been dedicated to honoring and profiling women and their families in the

Miami community.

A Latina struggling to be successful in a man’s world, Emily graciously shares the lessons she has

learned to help other women’s lives and careers flourish. She started an organization called "Miami

Women Who Rock" to acknowledge the amazing women in her community. This innovative group

hosted networking events to support health causes. In 2014, she created “Fifty Shades Of Pink”,

which is now a MWWR Signature event in its 7 th year, which raises Breast Cancer Awareness and

breast health for women. Every year, 10 new amazing women are acknowledged with an artist

inspired award in addition survivors are recognized with a “You Are My Rock” Medallion. Miami

Women Who Rock has raised money for The Women’s Breast Health Initiative, Chapman

Partnership, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, American Heart Association, and the American

Cancer Society. In 2018, MWWR created the Diamond Award to be presented to a young woman of

the future that is making a difference today.

Emily’s Awards & Honors include: the “Mickey Whiting Award”, “Hispanic Woman of Distinction”,

“Women of Style & Substance” and “Women to Watch” by Glamour Magazine. Born in Jersey City,

NJ, Emily is a true visionary and creative dynamo.

Even while building a thriving career, Emily has always made her son, Michael, the center of her

life. Michael graduated from the University of Miami and is very active in the community. Emily is

kind, compassionate, and generous to everyone she knows. But she is also one of the most

tenacious people you will ever meet. Her motto is, "If at first you don't succeed, try, try, and try

again, and never stop trying!" Emily hopes to be a “Latina of Legacy”, an encouraging example that

with hard work, tenacity, courage and a commitment to service is the most valuable contribution to

a community.
