Emily was raised in Perth, Australia, as the third of seven children. (Her parents are not religious and as far as she knows they never belonged to a cult-- they just love kids). After reading History at Oxford, she interned at Warner Brothers, took improv at Upright Citizens Brigade, and started screenwriting.
She was a 2021 Academy Nicholl Quarterfinalist, 2021/22 Minderoo Artist Fellow, a 2023 Ian Potter Emerging Artist grantee, a 2024 state finalist for RAW Comedy (Australia’s most prestigious stand-up competition), and is a current member of Craft Services Network, a selective writing accelerator run by writer/ producer Nicholas Weinstock (SEVERANCE, BRIDESMAIDS, THELMA).
In August 2026, she began a two-year scholarship studying TV writing in New York City with Oscar-winning writer Alan Kingsberg, and Oscar-winning producer Christine Vachon.
In the future, she hopes to pursue her long-held dream of becoming the most uncoordinated wrestler in the WWE.
