About Emily

January 30, 2026 | 1 Comment

Welcome! My name is Emily Borkowski, and I am thrilled t be a part of this graduate program as I work towards earning my master’s degree in Corporate Communications. I’m passionate about connecting people, building relationships, and creating meaningful experiences – a theme that has followed me throughout my personal and professional journey.

I am an Advanced Clinician Recruiter for Advocate Aurora health, where I focus on hiring highly skilled providers who deliver exceptional care across our healthcare system. Recruiting in healthcare is fast-paced and always evolving. I love the challenge of finding the right talent to support strong patient outcomes and thriving clinical teams. Before entering the healthcare field, I spent several years at Walt Disney World as a Guest Service Leader and Disney College Program Recruiter. Disney is where I developed my passion for service, storytelling, and creating memorable interactions — values I still carry into my work every day.

I am a proud UW-Whitewater Alum and received my bachelor’s degree in Corporate and Health Communications with a minor in Human Resources Management. My undergrad experience shaped so much of who I am — academically, professionally, and personally — and it’s exciting to be returning to the academic world now to deepen my communication expertise.

When I’m not recruiting or studying, you’ll most likely find me moving. I’m an avid runner and a committed Burn Boot Camp member, both of which keep me grounded and energized.

But the role I’m most proud of is being an IVF mom to my daughter, Lilly Mae. My IVF journey taught me resilience, gratitude, and the beauty of community — lessons that influence how I approach leadership, communication, and life as a whole.

As I work toward my master’s degree, I’m excited to strengthen my strategic communication skills, explore new ways to connect with audiences, and grow as a leader. I’m looking forward to learning from all of you and bringing these experiences back into my work within healthcare.
