About Emily

Hi there! I’m Emily, a singer, dancer, actor, and multi-instrumentalist from central New Jersey. If you need someone versatile in both music and theatre, I’m your girl! Whether I’m on stage in the cast of a musical, in the pit, or singing a killer rock set, I bring a balance of energy and groundedness to all of my work.

I am a recent graduate of Wagner College, where I received a degree in Theatre Performance with a minor in music. This year I will be on tour playing bass in the pit of the Jersey Boys 20th Anniversary National Tour. You can also spot me as the on screen guitarist in Netflix’s Don’t Say Good Luck. Outside of film and theatre, some favorite venues I’ve performed at include the The Cutting Room, Starland Ballroom, The Green Room 42, and the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame Summer Stage. I am also a proud member of the Maestra community, a directory of female and non-binary musicians in the musical theatre industry.

Outside of the arts, I enjoy spending rainy days knitting or reading a good book. There is a good chance I am listening to either Led Zeppelin or Frank Zappa right now.
