She completed UNC’s accredited athletic training program and earned a degree in Exercise and Sport Science, becoming a certified athletic trainer following graduation. She continued her education at UNC-Chapel Hill, earning a Master of Physical Therapy degree in 2000.
Luke and Emily worked side by side developing Trinity Wellness Center during the early years of their marriage.

In addition to her administrative duties, she has taken an active role in the gymnastics community, providing on-site physical therapy at both Raleigh School of Gymnastics (RSG) and Sonshine Gymnastics.
The Buffums have four daughters that keep them busy, and Emily is the daily driver for all of their sports and activities. As a family, they love traveling, hiking, and spending time at the beach.
