Outside of the Office

Emily’s life is filled with lots of dancing, art making, cooking and being in touch with nature and gardening. She is always striving to empower those around her in and out of the office. Her perspective comes from a creative approach and wanting to embody what it means to be playful while showing up and being a true and constant friend. She loves a good dance party, so she can boogie and jam to some good bops, and her aesthetic is 70s boho vibes. Right now, Emily is diving into painting, drawing, and getting back into dance classes for her enjoyment. It is a good day if it starts with a cup of coffee with Chobani creamer and she gets to end it by watching the sunset.
