LIFE OF PERFORMANCE
Emily was born in Aspen, Colorado and moved to San José del Cabo, México when she was three years old. She spent nearly twelve years there attending school, horseback riding, competing in gymnastics, practicing photography, and performing in a rock band. At ages eleven and twelve, she played lead guitar and electric bass in the Cabo School of Rock performing gigs around the city every weekend with her band mates.
She returned to Aspen for her high school years when she was fourteen and participated in skiing, pursuing photography professionally, and finding her passion for acting. She single-handedly designed, photographed, marketed, and published the Aspen High School yearbook on top of initiating her acting career. In her sophomore year at age fifteen, she joined her first theatre production and fell in love with the art of acting. Since then, she has participated in several theatre productions with Theatre Aspen and The Aspen School District, working with Juilliard grads and Broadway choreographers, before finding her way in front of a camera for a classmate’s IB Film project.
This ignited her decision to pursue a career in acting for film and television and study Performing Arts at Savannah College of Art and Design. During her time at SCAD, she found her love for modeling after she was selected by Ms. Jay from America’s Next Top Model for the SCAD Runway Show, and has since worked with brilliant photographers such as Toni Riales and Crystal Flores.
She is now a professional actress that is based in Savannah, Georgia working in the blossoming Southern film community! During her first year of professional work, she has already appeared in almost a dozen films. She has worked with accomplished directors, such as Emmy Award winners Mark Mylod (Game of Thrones) & Colin Bucksey (Breaking Bad), along with David Gordon Green (Halloween), J.D. Dillard (Devotion), and actors such as Jamie Lee Curtis, Anya Taylor Joy, Ralph Fiennes, Nicholas Hoult, Joe Jonas, Jonathan Majors, Glen Powell, Kim Dickens, Coleman Domingo, Jaimie Alexander, and Gerard Butler.
