allow me to introduce myself…
Hi! I’m Emily. I’m from Indianapolis, IN, where I discovered my love for the performing arts while sitting in the audience of a dance recital. My 4-year-old self was immediately enamored and fidgeted throughout the entire show, insisting “I need to dance now!” Thankfully, Mom got me into class soon after (thanks Mom!) and I haven’t stopped dancing since. I have extensive training in ballet, jazz, theatre dance, commercial dance, contemporary, modern, lyrical, hip hop, and tap. When I was eight, I saw Wicked and naturally got bitten by the musical theatre bug. The rest is history! Performing is my biggest passion, and has been for as long as I can remember.
At age 18 I moved to NYC and completed three years of training at the Institute for American Musical Theatre (IAMT). While in school, I was involved in various developmental works, including a new play written by Emmy award winner Jill Twiss and pre-production of Broadway’s 2021 Company revival. Since graduating, I have worked professionally both in and out of New York City. Recently, I joined Denis Jones and Lizz Picini for pre-production of She Loves Me at Bucks County Playhouse. I frequently assist choreographers Lizz Picini and Nicholas Cunningham.
Offstage, you can find me spending quality time with loved ones, doing diamond art, eating an everything bagel (toasted with scallion cream cheese), or listening to Taylor Swift. I believe laughter is the best medicine and empathy is everything. I am excited to continue growing, creating, and sharing my passion with others.
