Meet our Member Spotlight: Ellie Stricker! 👏🏻👏🏻Ellie is an Account Executive at Workscapes.

Ellie joined Emerge in 2023 to foster both personal and professional growth after relocating to a new city and starting a new job.

Her favorite Emerge event was the Empower Series at Top Golf. It was a fantastic venue to spend time at, and she was inspired by Sarah Daniels’ presentation. Ellie always looks forward to the Empower Series, as Emerge consistently brings in inspiring speakers with hard-earned success stories and hosts them in exciting venues throughout the Tampa Bay area.

Ellie is excited to see the creative events Emerge will organize this year. She is confident they’ll discover unique venues that will draw in even more members. She looks forward to hearing more inspiring stories from young professionals and building connections with the new members.

Ellie is also involved in ABC and REIC in the Tampa Bay Community.
