Bio
Rebekah Parsons Corbin
Emily is truly the kind of employee that offices should hire. She takes initiative, plans with forethought, accepts responsibilities without complaining and sees the bigger picture. I have been fortunate to work with her for several years and would hire her, without question, in my own business operation.
Ben Muhitch
Emily is friendly, outgoing, and possessive of natural aptitude for building meaningful relationships with other human beings. These qualities have served her extremely well as a member of the enrollment services team at Rochester College. She has always maintained a strong work ethic and a "go the extra mile" attitude. I would not hesitate to recommend her for any and all future job opportunities.
