Emily founded the company, Goat Song Films, where she currently serves as President.

The name originates from Greek tragedy when a choral dance was performed around a goat in honor of Dionysus, the god of harvest, wine, theater, and religious ecstasy.

The ethos behind the goat-song—passion, renewal, growth—is what inspires her work.
