Hi, I’m Emily — NC Allergy Girl and Miss Carolina Foothills' Teen 2026💙
I live with multiple food allergies, including peanut and soy, and I’ve turned my story into a mission. Through Allergy Allies, I share expert interviews, allergy safety tips, prevention conversations, and real stories from the food allergy community.
I’ve collaborated with medical leaders like Carolina Asthma & Allergy and the UNC Food Allergy Initiative Research Center to bring trusted, evidence-based information to families.
This channel is about more than awareness — it’s about prevention, education, and creating safer communities for individuals like me.

Stopped by the Legislative Building in Raleigh, NC to have to talk about something really important to me, keeping kids with food allergies safe. I sat done with Senator Sophia Chitlik @sophiachitlik about the Allergy Safe NC, Senate Bill 586.
We talked about the Bill, why it’s so important, and what we can all do to help get it passed in North Carolina.
