Emily Lane, PhD
The Grounded Twin
Emily Lane, PhD, MFA, is a lifelong Arkansan whose passion, simply, is to help make the world a better place. She exercises these passions through empathy, curiosity, creativity, advocacy, and research. In 2010, Emily received an MFA in filmmaking and spent several years documenting environmental and health injustices in Arkansas. Her films have been screened at festivals and events both locally and internationally, raising awareness about critical social and environmental issues.
In 2024, Emily received a PhD in Interdisciplinary Leadership Studies. In her doctoral research, she focused on identifying disproportionately impacted communities in Arkansas as well as public health leadership in the state, with an eye towards environmental justice and systems change. Emily has published academic research in public health and geography journals. In 2025, she began pursuing an MS in Health Promotion to deepen her understanding of public health practices and their applications in Arkansas.
Currently, Emily serves a local university as a project director for program evaluations and adjunct instructor of environmental health. In her free time, she enjoys working with her twin, Allison, on the Grounded Galactic podcast--a platform for reflection, realization, and revolution! Emily considers herself to be the "grounded" twin and aims to bridge metaphysical conversations with local and global topics to help uplift humanity.
When she’s not researching or advocating for change, Emily enjoys spending time with family and friends, watching documentaries, hiking, playing cards, and diving into deep conversations.
