Emily Bauer

Project Manager

Emily has over a decade of client relations and operations management experience. She holds a BA in English from Grand View University, where she graduated summa cum laude. She currently resides in the Midwest with four dogs and a lizard. Outside of work, Emily loves to travel and has done so extensively. She, quite literally, couchsurfed across the globe and learned more about the world during that time than she ever thought possible. When she’s not living out of a backpack and trekking through foreign countries, you’ll most likely find her baking (she believes bread is quite therapeutic), painting, or reading!

I truly believe in the power of books! Having the opportunity to be part of the process that brings an author’s words to life is something that I cherish.

3. What are your favorite books or genre?

I am a massive fantasy and romance reader! My three favorite books of all time are The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller, On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong, and The Poppy War Trilogy by R. F. Kuang.

4. How do you spend your free time?

I love to bake, crochet, paint, and read!

5. If you could have dinner with anyone, past or present, who would it be?

This might be cliche as I was an English major, but Jane Austen, hands down.

6. What is one thing very few people know about you?

I used to bake professionally! I hold a culinary arts degree.

7. How would you define your purpose?

I believe my purpose is to bring joy to others. One of my favorite sayings is, “If you can’t see the sunshine, be the sunshine.”
