Pressroom

Vicky began her service at EMI in the USA office as an intern, and as the internship was coming to an end, she was invited to the role of Intern Program Assistant, using her detail-oriented skillset to help in managing the program.  She then spent the next several years in that role, as well as taking on critical administrative roles within the HR department.  Her special gifting in logistics and coordination also made her an integral part of the EMI Network Conference planning team for several years. In 2015, as she was considering a new direction and EMI was exploring the opportunity of a new office in S.E. Asia, Vicky was one of the first team members to join what would become EMI Cambodia. Vicky has played a significant role to help establish this new office, serving in project development, HR and as a project leader. 

We are so proud of all of the faithful work you've done for EMI, Vicky! 

After serving as an intern with his wife, Carrie, in the EMI India office, Graham later rejoined that office as staff. During his time there as a project leader and associate director, Graham was instrumental in helping the office be successful in making a significant move from a much smaller city to the capital city. He also used his talents to network well within the region and bring on key members of their local staff. After 5 years, Graham transitioned to the US and Global offices and is now Director of Development. His vision, interpersonal skills, leadership, and energy to seek out big goals grew what was a tiny program into the full-fledged and growing department it is today.

We are so grateful for your service, Graham!
