Originally from Manchester, Emma graduated in 2016 from Middlesex University London, specialising in Virtual Reality experiences for the fashion industry. 

Since arriving in Paris in 2017, Emma worked with VR filmmaker Mathieu Pradat as the assistant director and producer on The Roaming (VRHAM! 2018 / Venice International Film Festival 75), before joining DVgroup in 2018. As a creative producer of original content, Emma worked directly with DV's most ambitious narrative pieces (Alice, The Virtual Reality Play, The Horrifically Real Virtuality), with a focus in Immersive XR Theatre and live motion capture performances. From 2021, Emma collaborated closely with Marshmallow Laser Feast for four years and gained invaluable experience in producing and designing immersive artworks.

In 2025, Emma’s personal project Reframing Queer Exile—currently in creation—was awarded the CNC’s Immersive Creation Writing Grant (March 2025 commission). The project comprises a series of immersive documentary experiences that amplify the voices of LGBTQ+ asylum seekers and refugees.

In collaboration with multidisciplinary artists Tasha Hubbard and Jason Ryle, Emma is also co-directing an immersive land-based installation entitled WAVES OF BUFFALO (part of MIT’s worlding cohort 2025). WAVES OF BUFFALO is a site-specific installation currently in development, that would seek to recreate the experience of bearing witness to a Great Herd of Buffalo passing by in the Great Plains of North America.
