About

Hi, I'm Emmalee & yes, that's how you spell it! I am a hardworking, optimistic, and caring person that loves art, music, animals, and the great outdoors. I take my work very seriously and I always have. I got my first job when I was 16 because I was very enthusiastic about becoming more responsible and working for my money. I am very reliable when it comes to work; whatever needs to be done, I am willing to help. I have a very positive outlook on life. I always try to look on the bright side in every situation, which makes me very easy to get along with. I love helping people, whether it's pulling someone out of a difficult situation or just simply putting a smile on their face. I have always had a love for art. My favorite thing to do is paint and often times I will end up painting animals. I am fascinated by the world we live in and I find it important to appreciate everything this amazing planet has to offer; adventure feeds my soul. I also really love music. I have been playing guitar since 2005 and haven't put it down since. I think that music is the easiest way for people to connect with one another because it is something that every culture enjoys. Through playing the guitar, I have learned how to sing and write my own music as well. My biggest inspiration is the best band that ever existed: The Beatles. Although I am an intelligent individual, I am aware that I've only lived on the earth for a short amount of time. That being said, I am always willing to learn because I know that as long as I am alive, I will never stop learning.
