AboutEmily Spence, Author at The Creative Issue

Emily Spence

Hi, My name is Emily and I’m originally from Yorkshire, England. I’m currently working as an Admin Assistant, but in my spare time I like to volunteer (with charities and at music/film festivals) and enjoy performing at acoustic open mic nights. I love to travel, read and watch movies. Comedy, Horror and Christmas films are my favourite (Krampus and Elf are the ones for me). I am very excited to join The Creative Issue team and share my passion for films.
