Emily was diagnosed with  Invasive Ductal Carcinoma in her left breast, with carcinoma also found in four lymph nodes in 2022.

She is married to Nick, a man in the world's top-ten most patient people list. Her two ridiculously good-looking children, Evie & Reece, inherited zero chill from their dad and too much of their mom's sass and sarcasm. They all live in Fargo. Where it's too cold for normal humans.

​

Em has a passion for rescue dogs, coffee, the lake in all seasons, human rights, travel and most music.
