Hi, I’m Emily.

By day I think about brands and write stuff for those brands.

By night I throw pottery, read modern fiction, play everything Nintendo, and root for the Chicago Bulls.

I became lactose intolerant in 2012.
If you take nothing else from my site, let it be this:
Eat cheese while you still can.
