As Senior Director of Development for Student Experience at the Georgia Institute of Technology Emily Wong leads a coordinated fundraising strategy that brings together Student Engagement and Well-Being (SEWB), the Office of Undergraduate Education and Student Success (OUESS), and the Georgia Tech Libraries. This integrated approach engages donors around the full student experience, from academic enrichment and research opportunities to well-being, belonging, and student life.

Emily is deeply embedded in the Georgia Tech community. She serves as the advisor to the Georgia Tech chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta and co-teaches GT 1000. She is a frequent speaker on topics related to parent giving and engagement, and is passionate about connecting families, alumni, and friends to opportunities that advance student well-being, high impact learning, academic enrichment, career development, and campus life.
