Emily Romney, MPA

Community Education Manager

Emily Romney joined MDF in June 2023 as our Special Projects Manager and became our Community Education Manager in 2024. After completing her undergraduate degree in Public Health, she recently earned her Master of Public Administration degree with emphases in nonprofit management and social impact. While working in the nonprofit health sector as a program coordinator, she deepened her passion for strengthening communities through empowerment and advocacy. Emily interned with MDF in the summer of 2022, where she worked on gathering community feedback for the evolution of MDF’s Toolkit. She was also fortunate enough to attend MDF’s annual conference in San Diego, CA. Impressed by MDF’s commitment to ensuring the DM community remains at the core of each of the organization’s decisions, she was thrilled to join the MDF team again!
