She began working at Floors of Stone in December 2015 as part of our sales team and has also been putting her degree to good use, taking on more responsibility for our marketing and PR.
Emily loves to sing and is classically trained to Grade 8 standard. To keep fit, she also enjoys running and practising yoga. Her spare time is spent visiting friends and discovering new places, as well as travelling to new countries - she still has plenty of places left on her list to visit!
