Other writer-director accolades include laurels at SXSW, SeriesFest, The Gotham Labs, Vimeo Staff Pick, and “Top Films of 2020” as curated by No Budge.
Possessing a love for VIDEO EDITING, Emily has collaborated with high-profile media companies in both the scripted and documentary space for film, television, branded, and digital media. Such work has been seen on Viceland, A&E, Lifetime, NBC,National Geographic, Sports Illustrated - to name just a handful.
