Biography

The Mind Behind EMRG

Allen Ashouri is the founder and CEO of EMRG, an award-winning digital marketing and consulting company. He started his entrepreneurial career at the bold age of 13, using his knowledge of IT to consult for clients while attending school. Originally born in New York, Allen moved to Los Angeles with his family at an early age, where he later graduated from USC's Marshall School of Business.

Since then, Allen has become an industry leader and innovator in digital marketing. He is the best-selling author of Powerhouse Websites, which has become an industry standard for best practices in web design, development, and digital marketing.

He is also a highly sought-after keynote speaker at conferences with thousands in attendance nationwide and a guest lecturer at the prestigious USC Schools of Business, Marketing, and Entrepreneurship. Allen consults for several Fortune 50 companies through EMRG. He also spends much of his time mentoring young professionals and giving back through organizations like Childfund.org and MamanNonProfit.com, the latter of which he is an advisory board member for. These are two of his favorites of the charities supported by EMRG.

Allen's personal life mission is to help as many people as possible, make as much of a positive impact he can, and live up to his full potential throughout the course of his life. He believes in the unlimited potential of every individual and is always looking for ways to help those around him reach theirs.

Allen attributes much of his success to the emphasis he places on execution: good ideas are only a starting point, but having the perseverance and focus to follow through on them turns dreams into reality. This philosophy is a big part of the company culture at his fast-growing digital marketing firm, which has successfully garnered millions of dollars in profits for its clients.
