Hi, I’m Emily.

And that’s my dog, Ruby. We don’t always come as a pair, especially not in the office. That’s because Ruby can be quite full on with new people and it mostly scares them off. But it’s all a front, because she’s really a very sweet girl once you get to know her. Ruby’s a complex lady. Anyway, I think I’m supposed to use up this hero bit to talk about awards and agency background and things like that. Hard to know where to start. Funny that. As a copywriter you’d think it’d all come naturally – but it’s one thing writing to a brief, and another writing about yourself.Anyway, I’m running out of space now and there’s plenty of links to my work below.
