After starting at reception in 2013, Emily has grown her professional career with Durham & Bates. Today, she’s a key member of the accounts team, and supports a range of clients for our Commercial Insurance line, including standing timber firms, real estate developers, manufacturers and more.
Even as one of the firm’s resident perfectionists, colleagues gravitate toward Emily’s warmth, kindness, and sense of humor—traits that she mixes with a thorough and efficient way of working.
“It’s important that we keep up on changes that happen among various coverages, not to mention new coverages that develop. At the same time, no matter how efficient we are in our research and fact gathering, we have to remember that our work comes down to helping people—and helping one another.”
When Emily pauses her workday, she likes to head out on a run or hike, visit one of her favorite Portland eateries, or don her green and yellow and root for the Portland Timbers.
