Kindergarten teacher by day, crocheter by night, Emily is constantly trying to balance her yarn stash with her stash of school supplies. She has worked for Happily Hooked Magazine for several years editing and designing and is a co-author of Crochet in a Day. When not working, you might find her driving her four kids to their many sports practices, outside taking photos, or spoiling her nieces and nephews. She has an affinity for all things Jurassic and wants to be a paleontologist when she grows up. She was raised in San Diego but now finds herself in the very hot Southern California desert.
