Meet Emily
Hey! I’m Emily and I’ve called Hampton Roads my home for my entire life. I couldn’t imagine living anywhere else. I’ve been in radio for quite a few years now and love it. I have a son named Leighton and a daughter named Verity. You may hear me call my husband Drew Baby — a nickname that will haunt him forever. I love traveling and exploring with my family so most weekends we are trying to find a new adventure. I’m a huge fan of great restaurants so always reach out if you find a new spot I need to know about! I suffer from a lifelong serious case of FOMO, so if there is something happening in Hampton Roads – I’m there! I’m excited to be part of the BOB team!
