Here’s a little more about Emily:
Q. What is the best way to start the day?
Answer: I love starting my day with a workout. It wakes me up and makes me feel energized and ready to conquer the day. It also helps me be more productive at work!
Q. What song always gets you out on the dance floor?
Answer: Africa by Toto
Q. What is something your mother/father taught you that completely changed your life?
Answer: My father passed away in 2020. His passing changed my life and taught me how incredibly short life is. It taught me to appreciate time with my loved ones more and to always express that I love them.
Q. What is the best piece of advice you have ever been given?
Answer: Don’t sweat the small stuff. It is so easy to get worked up over small things, but I try to remind myself – will this matter/be relevant in one week, one month, one year from now? If not, try to not let it consume your energy.
Q. What are some of your hobbies? How did you get into them?
Answer: I love to garden. I didn’t have my own space to garden until 2 years ago when we bought our home. That’s when I decided that I wanted to learn how to garden. I thought it would be fun to grow our own produce. My fiancé, Ben, and I built two garden boxes last summer and I joined gardening groups on Facebook and started researching how to start this process and what to grow. This year I am growing peppers, cucumbers, broccoli, romaine, spinach, and a few different types of squash. It has been so fun watching everything grow and eating fresh vegetables that we grew ourselves!
