Art Director, Designer, Visual Storyteller Based
in New York
With a sophisticated eye for design, I create powerful, brand-aligned creative for clients across luxury hospitality and travel — from sprawling, grand hotels and trendy boutique inns to exciting restaurant concepts. My superpower? Using design to emotionally connect with audiences and craft visuals that leave a lasting impression.
my design approach
What truly sparks my creativity is crafting experiences that stay with people for a long time — experiences that resonate on a deeper, more personal level. No matter the project, I always start by diving into the heart of the client’s brand, and understanding their story and purpose. I believe in slowing down, letting inspiration lead the way, and paying incredible attention to every little detail.
Over the past 12 years, I’ve had the privilege of designing for some of the country’s most extraordinary hotels and hospitality brands. From shaping visual aesthetics to messaging across print and digital — whether it’s billboards or social media templates — I’ve loved leading creative efforts. I’ve art directed and designed bespoke concierge magazines, and provided creative direction for industry-leading conferences and showcases. Through it all, my commitment to thoughtful, intentional choices has remained steadfast. I believe in the beauty of taking the time to craft each step, helping brands form deeper connections with the people who trust them.

“Design goes hand-in-hand with copy — and it’s key to the way stories are read and understood. As a writer and editor, I’ve worked alongside Emily on countless projects, and I can confidently say that she’s one of those rare creatives who just gets it every single time. Every collaboration with Emily is truly a joy. Not only is she a powerful visual storyteller, she’s also a passionate human being who always goes above and beyond for every client.”

“Emily is such a joy to collaborate with! She’s clear and thoughtful with her feedback, and has a real gift for zooming out to see the big picture while still weaving in intentional, meaningful details. She’s a total wizard when it comes to storytelling through layout—she knows exactly how to use color, shape, typography, and imagery to create something that not only looks beautiful, but also feels deeply connected to the story she’s telling.”
