About Emily
Emily holds an MFA in creative writing from the University of Central Florida where they served as a poetry reader and book review editor for The Florida Review. She graduated magna cum laude from Saint Leo University in 2020 where she earned her BA in English. They also had the honor of attending the summer 2024 Kenyon Writers Workshop where they studied under Ruth Awad, Tyree Daye, and Felicia Zamora. She currently serves as a reader for ONLY POEMS.
Emily writes poems that reflect their experiences as a neurodivergent queer person. She writes her truth bluntly and boldly in the hopes that someone will find themselves in her work’s raw openness or be challenged in their own worldview.
At the moment, Emily lives in Orlando, Florida with their partner and cats. When not writing or editing, she can be found playing the Sims and visiting theme parks. They dream of working within the literary magazine space in a paid capacity in addition to their volunteer reading work and are currently open to career opportunities.
