Emily is a graduate of AFTRS’ Master of Producing and has worked with leading Australian independent production companies including Bunya Productions and Felix Media. Her producing credits include the award-winning short films Bőr and Eat Up!, which have screened at festivals including Melbourne IFF, SXSW Sydney and Perth Revelation, receiving accolades including the 2024 MIFF Emerging Australian Filmmaker Award, the Australian Cinematographers’ Society’s Golden Tripod, and a Special Jury Award at the All-Asian IFF.

Before transitioning into film, Emily established a career in Canberra's public and commercial arts sector, working with contemporary Australian artists. She holds both a Bachelor of Art History and Curatorship and a Bachelor of Arts (First Class Honours) in Sociology from the Australian National University and undertook a semester abroad at Berlin’s Humboldt University to deepen her studies of Art Theory. This interdisciplinary background continues to inform her distinctive approach to producing, with a focus on artist-led collaboration, rich visual worlds and stories that challenge the way we see and understand each other.

Emily is currently developing her directorial debut: a feature documentary about queer circus icons Briefs Factory.
