Biography

With a career that spans more than two decades as a leading voice and face in the fashion industry, EMME is an iconic supermodel. With the conviction that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, EMME has paved the way and given women the platform to feel beautiful and empowered through her online community - EmmeNation.

EMME has worked with such household, lifestyle, beauty and fashion brands as Wisk, HP, Kellogg’s, Yoplait, Playtex, Clairol, Revlon, Schik Razors, David’s Bridal, Ulla Popken, Liz Claiborne, Nordstrom, Macy’s and many others.

In the spring of 2014, EMME launched the program SUFWL (Syracuse University Fashion Without Limits); Changing the Face of Fashion, with her alma mater Syracuse University, to create a first of its kind inclusive fashion education. This curriculum for young designers includes designs for size 12 and above in their education. The goal of SUFWL's is to shape shift the global fashion community to proficiently include a much larger size range of fashion forward apparel for all women. EMME’s work with SUFWL has received praise from Women’s Wear Daily, Yahoo! Style, People Style Watch, and many others globally.

A TV personality, model, mom, author, brand spokesperson, creative director of her clothing lines, lecturer and globally recognized advocate for positive body image and self-esteem, EMME’s message is clear – to awaken the inner magnificence inherent in each of us - to be whole. She is the first model invited to speak before a Congressional subcommittee in Washington, D.C. with a mission to increase public awareness of eating and body image disorders.

EMME is often consulted and interviewed in the media and on eating disorders and body image, fashion trends, model diversity on the runway, in magazines, and in main stream advertising, as well as surviving cancer and women's health. She is a regular on such TV outlets as CNN, MSNBC, HLN, ShowBiz Tonight, FOX News, GMA, CBS The Early Show, OMG! Insider, Access Hollywood, The Today Show, and others to share her point of view on these topics and more. Her outspoken and thoughtful nature on those subjects has also allowed her to travel the country as a public speaker and panelist.

EMME is regular contributor to The Huffington Post and the author of three books, “True Beauty”, “Life’s Little Emergencies”, and her children’s book “What Are You Hungry For?”.
She has twice been selected to People Magazine’s "50 Most Beautiful People" and Ladies’ Home Journal chose her as one of the "Most Important Women in America" and one of the "Most Fascinating Women of the Year."

The accolades are truly representative of the tireless work she continues to do but it don’t stop there: she has also been honored as one of Glamour magazine’s "Women of the Year" and as one of Biography magazine’s “25 Most Influential Women.”

Her philanthropic outreach includes being a board member to Hearts of Gold and honorary board member to The Project Heal, an ambassador to The National Eating Disorders Association, and she donates her time to the Girl Scouts of America.

Born in New York City, EMME was raised in Saudi Arabia and attended Kent, the prestigious Connecticut boarding school and was awarded a full rowing athletic scholarship to Syracuse University making her part of the first generation of young women in the nation to
do so through Title IX.

EMME’s passion for nature and fitness continues to make sports an integral part of her life, and participates in skiing, triathlons, snowshoeing, boogie boarding, hiking, long distance biking, yoga, golf, dreams of kite surfing and has recently taken up pole fitness.
Today, EMME and her daughter live in Northern New Jersey.
