Experience

As Shopping Editor for Reader's Digest, Emily has covered everything from the coziest pajamas to skincare and bedding. A high school trip to Western Europe sparked her interest in travel. Now, she's always interested in exploring new ways to pack her (norally bursting) suitcase. She has written for Family Handyman, Taste of Home and Reader's Digest. Previously a sales and deals editor, Emily is passionate about locating the best products at prices that readers can afford. Her expertise lies in product testing and exploring viral products from Tiktok and Instagram. When she’s not searching through flash sales, you can usually find her reading mystery novels or cuddling with cats.
