USA Artistic Swimming has hired Emily Burlison as its new events and membership director, charging her with organizing all National Championships hosted by the national governing body and managing the organization’s membership program.
“Artistic swimming is such a beautiful and unique sport and I look forward to getting to learn more about the sport and see everyone at our events,” Burlison said. “I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity and can’t wait to get started.”
Burlison has been the operations and event coordinator at US Youth Soccer since February 2022, helping plan and execute all USYS competitions and events where she assisted with logistics such as event planning documents and timelines for all selected regional and national events.

Her first official event will be the collegiate championships on March 21 alongside former Events and Membership Director Baylee Robinson.
