Pronouns: She/Her
Emma Torres, User Researcher. Emma is passionate about building healthier communities through technology. Three years ago, Emma joined Peloton as a Research Coordinator and has since grown into a User Researcher who leads Row software initiatives. She currently focuses on improving the Member experience across Peloton’s hardware and software offerings, as well as making products more accessible for those with disabilities. Before Peloton, Emma graduated from Bowdoin College with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology.
During her time at Bowdoin, Emma devised and launched Maine’s first TeleNeurology program in partnership with Maine Medical Center’s Neuroscience Institute. This program has been active for 5+ years, enabling patients in rural Maine to have access to high-quality medical care from the comfort of their homes. Emma is a Maine native who enjoys spending time with her family and exploring the islands in Casco Bay. Now that she lives in Brooklyn, Emma’s favorite weekend activity is going for a long run in Prospect Park and swinging by the local farmers’ market for coffee and muffins with her sister.
