Emily is the Chief People Officer at Signifyd. Emily was born and raised in Silicon Valley - her father spent his career actually building the robotic arms that make silicon wafers. She attended Duke for undergrad but California beckoned her back for law school, and she’s stuck around ever since. She was tempted to move over to tech when she became a mom, and after stints at Google and SurveyMonkey (which more than doubled in size during her tenure), she joined Signifyd, where she has led all things People and Culture since 2016. She has been responsible for building and scaling a business-driven, proactive, human-centric HR and Talent Acquisition strategy across their entire global workforce as it has grown nearly 5X in headcount and over 25X in ARR. She still lives in Northern California and has 2 children, a 14 year old daughter named Dante and a 6 year old son named Max, and when she isn’t working or with her kids she makes time for her very committed relationship with her Peloton. She is also a self-proclaimed fashion, pop culture, and Bravo junkie.
