โจ KHI Staff Snapshot: Emma Uridge โ Analyst
With inspired vision, Emma brings polish and precision to everything she touches. As part of KHIโs policy team, she conducts research and analysis on population health, access to care and more โ helping connect data, design and strategy to improve health across Kansas.
Currently, Emma facilitates the Age-Friendly Public Health Systems initiative in Kansas and recently facilitated the planning committee for the reinstated Kansas Governorโs Conference on Aging.
Outside the office, Emmaโs keen eye and altruism remain unequivocal. Known for her impeccable taste, she almost exclusively shops at a resale boutique that supports hospice and palliative care in Kansas City.
โ Q: If parallel universes exist, what do you think the โyouโ in another one is doing right now?
๐ฌ A: I would be rummaging through a flea market in the south of France for bits and bobs I do not need. Ideally, I would be joined by a pack of small, long-haired dogs who are trained to be off-leash.
๐ท Raise a glass of red to Emma โ a master of style, purpose and impact.
