Emy was born in Utah but spent most of her childhood in Arizona. She returned to Utah to attend BYU before transferring up to Salt Lake Community College to earn a degree in occupational therapy. It was while working as an occupational therapy assistant at the Utah State Hospital that she met her husband, Greg. They became good friends at work and even went on a couple group dates together (but not with each other). After about two years of friendship, Emy realized that Greg was the one she wanted to be with and invited him over for dinner and Simpsons where she took the plunge and told him how she felt. Luckily, he agreed and they were engaged a couple months later. They just celebrated the 21st anniversary of the day their family began and look forward to many more years together. Emy and Greg have two kids, a son that is getting ready for his first year in college and a daughter looking forward to her senior year of high school. Emy chose to be a full-time mom for most of her kids’ childhood. She recently returned to working, but this time as an elementary school librarian which she loved doing for the past four years. Emy is still at the same school but is now in the office as the assistant secretary. Working with young children has been such a joy and having a school schedule allows enough free time for her favorite things: cooking for her family, evening walks with her husband, girls nights, reading, and traveling.
