Editorial Assistant
Emily is the hub of all Alaska Business communication. As the editorial assistant she fields phone calls; sends surveys and collects the data that are the basis for all Alaska Business directories; and proof reads and fact checks just about everything the editorial department turns out. In her free time, Emily enjoys playing the piano and taking a stroll through the magnificent Alaska landscape. Though she’s originally from Utah, Emily considers Alaska home. She attended Snow College and Brigham Young University where she earned degrees in Child Care Management and Home and Family Living.
We’re honored again this year to celebrate our partnership with Junior Achievement of Alaska, a nonprofit that educates local youth about enterprise, business, money, and financial literacy. In the special section, three Junior Achievement of Alaska students weigh in on their experience with the exceptional volunteers and teachers involved with the program.
And in Industry Support, we explore the range of varied services that industry in Alaska requires, from mancamps to spill response to off-grid energy solutions.
Outside the special sections, make sure to check out the 2026 Economic forecast, where Alaska leaders share their insights on what may lie ahead in the coming year. Enjoy!
