FREELANCE WRITER & STRATEGIST — CHICAGO, IL

Hi, I’m Emma.

I write about beautiful things and the people creating them, telling stories of craft and connection for the industry’s leading interior designers and hospitality brands.

But wait, there’s more! As the Editor-in-Chief of Collective Magazine, my work highlights the creatives and entrepreneurs who put the Midwest on the map.

Find me with a notebook in hand, ready to listen.
