Meet Emily Watkins
SEO Consultant
Small Box is excited to introduce you the newest member of our crew:Â The Princess of the Search, Emily Watkins!
Emily has always been at the center of action and applies herself in a smart and methodical way to everything she does. She worked with Jeb at Antique Helper and fits right into a team constantly striving for better results.Â
Born and raised in Indianapolis, Emily graduated with a BA in English from Valparaiso University in 2005. After graduating, she spent the next 4 1/2 years touring the country as the keyboardist for the Indianapolis based band Margot & the Nuclear So & So's.
Coming on board at Small Box in March 2010, Emily works with Ben as an SEO Consultant.
Emily lives in Fountain Square on the south-east side of downtown and in her spare time plays keys and records with The Academy and another yet-to-be-named project. She also co-runs the SAKE Gallery in the Murphy Building in Fountain Square with Stacy Novak, Kristen Reilly and Andy Fry. When she's not busy doing any of the above, she spends time screen-printing, baking, sewing, knitting, trying to garden, listening to music on the back porch and hanging out with her eight siblings.
We're excited to have Emily aboard and looking forward to utilizing her experience in 2010!
