New PowerShell as a user with administrator rights

I want to open a new powershell.exe as a user but with the administrator rights (this user is already added to administrator group).



To open new powershell.exe as user, I used this command:



runas /profile /user:emma powershell.exe


Can I change it somehow to get what I need?

          You want something like



          Start-Process powershell.exe -Credential "emma" -NoNewWindow -ArgumentList "Start-Process powershell.exe -Verb runAs"


          Assuming Emma is an admin.
