One memory stands out: of Emma on her 7th birthday at the Taekwondo studio, skillfully and joyfully breaking multiple boards in front of a rapt group of newbie kids, my 4 y/o daughter among them. Seeing Emma in action inspired my kid to break a board of her own that day--her mind blown that she too could do this! For this and other happy occasions spent together at Asia Society, Alex Emma will be remembered for her wit, her warmth, her poise, and her courage.
