Hi! I’m Emmet. Born just outside London, raised on the East Coast and currently based out of Seattle.
Right now I work in advertising, trying to make the “account person” role a little more exciting. I spend lot of time thinking about ways our clients can tap into the zeitgeist and insert themselves into pop culture, pitching ideas that partner brands with movies, music, events and more.
In my past life I worked in consumer/lifestyle PR, dozens of fashion shows, afterparties, events, photoshoots, mixed cocktails, waited tables and did odd catering jobs. I even did stints as a janitor, kids camp counselor, and contractor’s assistant.
When I’m not hunched over a laptop responding to emails I love traveling, movies, pop music, art, and my dog.

TESTIMONIALS
Katie Jensen
(Former Group Creative Director, Mekanism)
Emmet is the person you want in the room when you’re trying to figure out what brands should actually be doing in the world. He has a wonderful ability to read culture, spot the right partners, and make the work sharper, bigger, and more meaningful. He’s collaborative, curious, generous with his thinking, and just a genuinely great human to build with. Any team would be lucky to have him, and I’d work with him again in a heartbeat.

(Former client, Sling TV)
Emmet’s professionalism, attention to detail, and calm leadership made our relationship with Mek run like a well-oiled machine. What impressed me most was going on shoots with Emmet. He anticipates needs before they arise, communicates clearly, and makes everyone on set feel supported. Emmet elevates the work and people around him, and what more can you ask for?
