As Founder and CEO of The Brain Possible, Emily Abbott’s inspiration to create the website came from her family’s difficult journey to find treatment and support for their son Carter, who suffered a brain injury in infancy.

In addition to her role at The Brain Possible, Emily is the Director of Creative Design for Abbott Properties, where she oversees all interior and exterior design projects, including boutique properties like The Bardot event space and The Hotel Indigo in Kansas City. 

A native of central New Jersey, Emily studied art at Hollins College and Pace University, and is currently raising four wonderfully energetic children with her husband Matthew in Kansas City.
