Emma was born and raised in San Diego, CA, and enjoyed her summers from the ages of 8-18 singing and dancing on Balboa Park's Casa del Prado stage. In high school, as an active member of the La Jolla Playhouse's student board, Emma was introduced to the world of professional theatre and the importance of theatre in the community.

​

Since graduating from Western Michigan University with a BFA in Musical Theatre and Political Science, Emma has relocated to Chicago, IL and signed with DDO Artist's Agency. Staying true to her last name, when Emma is not bartending at The Delta in Wicker Park, she is performing in Drunk Shakespeare as Macduff.

Off-stage, you can find Emma making music with friends, exploring new places, and teaching Zumba at the gym.
