I bring people together
& make them feel alive

I’m Emily.

A Yorkshire-born storyteller, experience designer, lifelong gatherer of humans, and founder of Dine Wilder. I pull women out from behind their screens and back into real life, creating spaces where conversation flows, confidence returns, and real connection takes root. Words are my love language. Through storytelling, writing, and shared stories, I help people see each other and themselves more clearly.

I believe in jumping before you’re ready. I skip the small talk and lead with, "Tell me something." Strangers are more important than we realize, and the people we meet have the power to change everything. That belief drives everything I do.

Grazing tables were the first vehicle for this work when I co-founded Graze Wilder Charcuterie in 2020, and today it has expanded into curated dinners, panel events, and conferences where people connect in ways that surprise, challenge, and leave a lasting impact. I don’t just make things look beautiful. I craft moments that stay with you long after the last plate is cleared.

I believe humans are magic. I want to surround myself with people unafraid to fail, and if you’re not there yet, I’m here to help you get there. I learn on the fly, and I know big ideas only take flight when paired with bold action.
