FILMMAKING

Emmett has been making films for over ten years. After graduating from Milwaukee's High School of the Arts, he went on to attend New York University's prestigious Tisch School of the Arts, where he studied Film and Television production with a focus on writing and directing.

 
 

ACTING

Emmett was bitten by the acting bug in his younger, pre-transition years, but settled into more behind-the-scenes work for the most part. Since transition and since the launch of BROTHERS, he has a newfound love and appreciation for being in front of the camera and being visible as his authentic self.
