In fact, she produces and fronts news features all over the country, in the most incredible locations — but is particularly at home in her wellies, presenting countryside programmes.Throughout her long-standing media career, she’s been a runner, researcher, radio reporter, floor & stage manager and presented for ITV, BBC and Channel 4. These days, Emma also channels her media savvy into event hosting, voiceover & video work, bespoke ladies' events and raceday trips, as well as training for businesses and institutions.
