Emily White recently finished an internship with Creative Inc, a Disney Destinations Marketing based department charged to facilitate creative process and champion a creative work environment.

Emily will lead eye opening dialogues and engage thought provoking discussions on the creative process and her experiences working with Disney.

She's currently working on her thesis around the role of introversion in creativity education to finish her Master's degree at the International Center for Studies in Creativity at Buffalo State College.

As a student of creativity Emily has also researched creativity in the physical environment examining what a purpose designed facility might be like for a center of creativity and creative studies, or ultimately the perfect non-domain specific creative space. She hopes to one day own and operate such a space.

She loves teaching, learning, and creating conversations that change the world.
