Emily Alfred
Emily is an inspirational human whose calming demeanor cuts through all the chaos that she may find as she continues to live her life in a non-traditional and impactful way. She constantly strives to know, understand, and holistically experience her ever-changing surroundings and to leave them better than she found them. Professionally, Emily has most recently worked for the disaster relief nonprofit; All Hands and Hearts in Puerto Rico and Texas.
Living life as a traveler, the nagging ideal of a socially acceptable adulthood has crept into her mind over and over, but her time in post-Maria, Puerto Rico provided a different perspective and vision of what a successful life could be. On the horizon she sees a life filled with love for all living things, advocacy in the face of injustice, a lot of hard work, a beautiful view, and the ocean not too far away.
