Heyo, I’m Emily
and this is my story
I founded Little Lion Creative in 2017 after I left my corporate job. This time taught me a lot and played a significant role in why I am where I am. I’m also a dog mom and sister, Rhode Island native, graduate of Hampshire College (‘09F). I pride myself on my creativity, sense of collaboration, and ability to problem solve. As a publishing industry survivor and longtime reader, I am dedicated to storytelling and the power it holds. I infuse this belief into all of the work that I do, no matter the industry or scope.
I partner with entrepreneurs and creatives
who are excited about their work
As someone who comes from a family of entrepreneurs, I take what I do seriously and I appreciate it when other people do as well. I want to collaborate with people who are enlivened by what they create. People who are passionate and serious. Whether you’re starting a new chapter or are established in your career, I will help you convey your uniqueness to your audience. My background means that I also have a unique understanding of the needs and life of a small business owner.
I know that flexibility and fairness are paramount, and I know that you have to meet people where they are. This is precisely why I always strive to present information and concepts in a way that makes sense to you, my client. There is no gatekeeping here, only collaboration. What I feel most strongly about is my ability to be your advocate, your cheerleader, and your confidant. Small businesses and creators are the backbone of our communities…take care of them and everyone else will flourish.

The Little Lion Ethos
Transparency | Open communication and honesty makes for the best projects. If something’s working, let’s celebrate it and it something’s just not right, let’s figure our why and practice some problem solving.
Organization | I have devised a direct and impactful series of house rules that create a seamless workflow. Each client receives their own timeline as well!
Collaboration | The most interesting ideas come from working together. If you have an idea that sounds a little crazy or weird, share it, because it probably isn’t.
Attention | To you. To detail. To your project. One of the benefits of working with a curation of clients is the ability to give everyone the attention they need as we design and execute thoughtful, tailored, and inspired work.
Passion | Passion is at the core of everything I do. A passion for the projects, a passion for the people, and a passion for the power of storytelling. It’s why I do this and it’s why I get up in the morning.
Work-Life Balance | I love going on random adventures and making the most out of life. That’s why I don’t have exact “office hours,” but I always strive to answer emails within 48 hours of landing in my inbox.
