Senior Principal- EMC Research

Emily Kirby Goodman joined EMC in 2012 after working at Hart Research Associates in Washington, D.C. for six years. She brings her lifetime of political experience and her Texas charm to every project, treating each client as unique and important. She is hands-on, making sure that her polling isn’t simply following a formula, but addresses the specific challenge at hand. Her expertise includes presidential, U.S. Senate, and gubernatorial races, but she especially loves local candidate and issue races where she can be deeply involved and see the impact of change.

Emily has her B.A. in Political Science from Texas A&M University and her M.A. in Political Communication from Johns Hopkins University. Her thesis was about electing women to office, something that continues to be a passion. Emily loves living in California, but continues to be passionate about her Dallas Cowboys.
