Meet Emily
I’ve been called a pioneer in the world of uniquely-talented people who feel empowered to go beyond conventional jobs and create businesses from unique vantage points and perspectives.

I consider myself “genetically unemployable” working as a freelancer since 1992. I’ve been blessed to serve the freelance business community through the creation of the largest local-specific freelance business project community in Austin, The Freelance Conference, National Freelance Business Week that occurs the third week of April every year as well as the Freelancers Choice Awards.
In a joint venture in 2015 with Shelley Delayne, founder of Orange Coworking, Scott True, founder of Dimora Homes and the late Aaron Bramley of Lights, Camera Help to launch a non-profit to support the growth of freelancers across Texas.
When I’m not behind a computer screen you can find me in the garden, somewhere enjoying the water, two-stepping across Texas or riding mountain bike trails throughout Austin.
