Emma was born in Hillingdon, West London. Her love of drama started at a very young age, and although a cliché, did perform an array of “off-the-cuff” performances for family members - dragging her four sisters and one brother up to be the extras! She fell in love with performing at school originally taking drama as one of the options and from there went on to Amersham Performing Arts College where she studied Acting Technique, Drama and Dance.

Emma soon landed a part in EastEnders (BBC) and soon after that was cast as a regular in the long running kids drama Grange Hill (BBC). During her work on these shows she also starred in several high profile TV commercials and various ad campaigns.

Emma also continued her training and was accepted into Sole Performing Arts School in West London working on various acting techniques. It was at this point that she was signed by
TCG Artists Management and was then cast as Timothy West’s daughter in The Inspector Linley Mysteries (BBC) and as a series regular in Mile High (Sky One).

Emma has also worked alongside Peter O’Toole, Joanna Lumley and Keira Knightly in the epic drama Coming Home, Camryn Manheim in The 10th Kingdom and Sidney Poitier in The Jackal. Emma recently became one of the infamous “Angels” alongside Rebecca Keatley as the new “duo” for the famous ‘Philadelphia Cream Cheese’ commercials.
