Emerson Smith (he/him), Operations Manager

Raised in the Greater Metro Detroit area, Emerson spent four years in Los Angeles after graduating from Oakland University. There, he built his foundation in operations and administration at the fitness brand POUND Rockout Workout, as well as the online content production company Rogue Rocket, before setting his sights back to the Midwest. Since moving to the Twin Cities in early 2021, Emerson has spent the past year managing the calendar at Kemmetmueller Photography, perfectly prepping him for the task of maintaining Pathway’s schedule and daily operations. He’s eager to plant his roots in Minneapolis and to support and ingratiate himself into the beautiful and eclectic community here. In his spare time, he enjoys writing prose and music, and playing tabletop role-playing games with his friends. {Email: emerson@pathwaysmpls.org}
