I am Emma Von Behren, a creative strategist and communications specialist shaping narratives at the intersection of luxury, fashion, and beauty. With a background in finance and corporate communications, I bring structure to artistic vision, translating abstract ideas into tangible impact.
At my core, I am curious, perceptive, and drawn to the deeper truths within every story. This pursuit of understanding has led me to a career in communications, where I merge knowledge, intuition, and strategy to shape how brands engage with the world.
While my professional and academic background spans corporate communications, PR, finance, and psychology, my dedication to storytelling remains the throughline.
As both an art and a discipline, I see storytelling as a way of discerning patterns within complexity and creating meaning from the abstract.
This site is a reflection of this philosophy, showcasing how I merge creative instinct with analytical precision to tell stories and build narratives that resonate. By curating how I tell my own story, I hope to reinforce the power of this craft and my dedication to it.
More than a portfolio, this is an invitation - to exchange ideas, uncover opportunities, and collaborate with those who believe in the impact of intelligent, evocative storytelling. To work alongside those who seek to express what longs to be understood, realized, and remembered.
If that sounds like you, let’s talk...
My Philosophy:
Storytelling is more than recounting events; it is an act of listening, a pursuit of understanding, and a bridge between what was, what is, and what could be.
A good story is a dialogue between past, present, and possibility, shaped by imagination but always grounded in something true. It should feel like a memory, invoking insight once forgotten but instantly known, not telling the listener what happened, but drawing them toward what has always been.
