Emma is a contestant from *Survivor: Micronesia*, *Survivor: Marquesas* and *Survivor: Island of the Idols*.

## Survivor: Micronesia

Emma began *Survivor: Micronesia* on the orange Airai tribe, originally labelled the 'Fans'. At the beginning of the game, the tribe was divided based on gender. However, Lily managed to bring in Tristan so that the Airai Women's Alliance would have the numbers. At their first tribal council on Day 6, this alliance had the numbers and Zac was voted out. Belle, Cecilia, Emma and Kaylee were then starting to notice that a strong relationship had formed between Lily and Tristan. In order to ensure that Lily would rely on them completely and to have the complete majority over the minority of men on Airai, the girls forced Lily to blindside Tristan at their second tribal council on Day 8.

At this point, Emma made the tribe switch and remained on Airai with original members Kaylee, Mason and Arthur. At the tribes first loss, the original Malakal tribe blindsided one of their own and Axel was voted out. After tribal council, Kaylee fell ill due to the infection of bug bites and was medically evacuated. After an immunity win, both tribes had to send someone home in a Double Tribal Council. The favorites and Emma stuck together and Mason was voted out at Airai's tribal.

Emma made the merge and was reunited with her original alliance member Cecilia. At the first merged tribal councils, Emma voted with the majority for Gloss, but was in the minority when Arthur was voted out. The Palau alliance began to crack and Emma voted with the majority for Xenia. However, she used a Hidden Immunity Idol and voted out Rachel in the process.

On Day 30, Emma was considered for the vote but was spared when Katniss was deemed a larger threat. Emma then turned on Cecilia to save herself, but Wyatt was voted out instead. The tribe then unanimously voted out Ricardo. At the next tribal council, Emma and Cecilia held the votes. Even though Cecilia had an idol and played it, Emma had more votes and was sent home. As a member of the jury, Emma voted with the jury unanimously for Cecilia to win the title of Sole Survivor at the Final Tribal Council.

## Survivor: Marquesas

Hoping to do better with her allegiances, Emma was given a place on *Survivor: Marquesas* on the blue Rotu tribe. She was originally placed on the blue Rotu tribe and formed a tight bond with Brooklyn. When the tribe lost immunity on Day 8, the pair voted for Quentin. However, the majority Rotu Alliance voted for Oliver and he was sent home. Emma then turned on Brooklyn and voted with the majority in sending home Amalia.

At the tribe switch, Scott stayed on Rotu with original members Aaron, Quentin and Emma. The tribe only lost the last two tribe challenges. The original Rotu members stuck together and voted out Belle and Harriet in the process. By this point, Emma made the merge. At the first merged tribal council, she voted with the majority in sending home Kurtis. However, half of her original alliance brought in outsiders and blindsided Quentin at the next vote. However, they stuck together later and sent Shawna home. At the next three tribal councils, Emma voted for Jade, but the majority sent home her former allies of Aaron, Scott and Jade.

The final immunity challenge was won by Harry. He believed that Emma had too many friends on the jury to secure a win and he voted out Emma, making her a member of the jury. At the Final Tribal Council, she voted for Harry to win the title of Sole Survivor.

## Survivor: Island of the Idols

Emma then returned for Survivor: Island of the Idols where she was originally placed on the orange Lairo tribe. Previous relationships were put under intense scrutiny on Lairo, including Emma and Jaclyn who previously worked together on *Micronesia*. For playing on one of the earlier seasons, Jaclyn and Emma were seen as two of the bigger threats. Luckily for them, the girls made a majority alliance with Fabian, Jose, Sasha and Tatianna who also had previous relationships. This alliance held the power at the first two tribal councils Lairo attended, sending home strategic threat Michelle and loveable lug Chad. Lairo then won the following two immunity challenges.

At the tribe switch, Emma was switched to the purple Vokai tribe along with Fabian, Jaclyn and Tatianna. Despite working with them previously, Emma and Jaclyn abandoned Fabian and Tatianna in order to create an Old School Alliance with Bethany, Ellis and Penny. When Vokai lost their first immunity challenge together, it was agreed that the new Old School Alliance would be voting for Fabian because he was less likely to have an idol between him and Tatianna. Fabian played an idol for Tatianna at tribal council and this was wasted because Emma and her alliance voted out Fabian. The Old School Alliance relished in this move, creating an extremely close bond between Bethany, Emma, Jaclyn and Penny especially. On Day 17, the Lairo tribe elected to send Emma to the Island of the Idols. She was joined by *Survivor: The Australian Outback* alumni Aida where she found a vote blocker. With a firm majority on the tribe now, the Old School Alliance unanimously eliminated Tatianna and Dre at Vokai's following two tribal councils. At Vokai's fourth consecutive immunity challenge loss, it appeared that Emma and Jaclyn would be easy targets because they were outnumbered 3-2 based on original tribal lines. However, the Old School Women were closer to each other than to Ellis and he was voted out at tribal council.

When the tribes merged on Day 23, Emma's alliance grew in numbers as Bethany and Penny were reunited with Leo, who also brought in Luke and Natalie. After Emma played her voting advantage at the first merged tribal council, the Old School Alliance had the numbers and consecutively sent Henry and Jose to the jury. With the numbers dwindling, the Old School Women made a pact to the end and agreed that Leo was too well connected to his former Lairo tribe members. Leo, as a sign of his loyalty to Emma and the Old School Alliance, was forced to blindside Luke at tribal council. It was then agreed the group would be blindsiding Natalie at the next tribal council despite telling her to vote for Ika. When the minority trio voted for Bethany, a three way tie occurred between Bethany, Ika and Natalie. At the revote, a deadlocked vote occurred because no one switched their votes and the remaining five castaways were forced to draw rocks. Unfortunately, Emma lost her closest ally in Jaclyn but was hopeful her loyalty to the Old School Alliance would keep her safe. This was not the case and Emma was unanimously voted out at the following tribal council. At the Final Tribal Council, she voted for Bethany to win the title of Sole Survivor.
