Emily connects with her creative collaborators because she is one of them. She approaches creative leadership with the perspective of both a storyteller and a practicing artist.

Emily continually experiments with new mediums as part of her creative process, strengthening her ability to collaborate with artists and communicate ideas visually. This approach not only elevates her feedback and creative direction, but often leads to direct contributions within the projects she helps lead—including scriptwriting, custom illustrations for cinematics, end-credit artwork for The Dragon Prince, and visual work for tabletop RPG projects.
