==Biography==
Emma was raised in Australia by her parents; Neil and Lisa, and at just three months old she started taking swimming lessons from her father. At just three years old she met Zane Bennett, but they did not remain close for long, they broke up soon, but as their parents continued to be close friends, they continued to see each other.
During her childhood, Emma met Cleo Sertori and the two have since become close friends to the point that Emma is aware of Cleo's terrible singing. However, due to her continuous swimming training, she only started coming to Cleo's birthday parties from her sixth onwards. After years of friendship, she didn't know that Cleo's birthday parties remained the same as her childhood parties, courtesy of Cleo's father, Donald Sertori. Then she Emma became Elliot Gilbert's older sister.
After years of training, she finally became a famous swimming champion.
Emma dedicates most of her time to training to win, but when she became a mermaid, she has to leave the team temporarily, she can do this because her father is a businessman in sales and financial development. She has a great relationship with her brother, Elliot, and she and he respect each other.
==Personality==
Emma is very competitive and self-confident, intelligent, reliable, responsible, kind, a control and organization freak. She always thinks before acting, she knows how to give good advice, follows the rules and can't stand those who break them; she can also be very authoritarian. Calm and studious, she is the exact opposite of Rikki: in fact, although they are very good friends, sometimes they don't get along. Emma is swimming champion, which she had to leave after her transformation.
She also has a great relationship with her brother Elliot, unlike Cleo and Kim. Despite having abandoned swimming, Emma retains some of her determined personality. She is the most empathetic of her friends regarding household chores or personal daily problems. She tends to express a lot of concern for her friends and will even go out of her way to try to do the impossible for them, even doing her best to restore Louise Chatham's decadent boat.
Her responsibility sometimes leads her to be arrogant and superstitious, as she always reminds her brother and her friends to work and hates disorganization. This tends to drive those around her crazy at times when she stresses them out too often.
She is also paranoid and believes that her way is best and she doesn't listen to others because of it. When situations are critical she always shows off.
Emma often fights with Rikki, compared to their popularity, as Emma is responsible and organized, Rikki on the other hand is rebellious and carefree, and the worst is that Cleo gets stuck in the middle of their fight. Furthermore, another characteristic of Emma is her bossiness. While she argues with Rikki, he bosses her around but she doesn't know that she sometimes hurts her feelings.
Emma isn't as hard and tough as she seems; in her own words, "I might look tough, but I get hurt easily" ("Sink or Swim").
