Where is She Now? Former Wings Angel Emily

When I attended Soulmate Open Call Auditions last month, I ran into former Philadelphia Wings Angel Emily, and did a little catching up.

So, after three seasons dancing for the Wings, she co-founded (with best friend Cassie Russo) the Philadelphia Fight Vixens (Professional Rugby) Dance Team.

She also helped Cassie open the new CaRu Entertainment Dance Studio in Pennington. The studio opened this past September.

Emily also earned her Masters in Broadcast and Digital Journalism from Syracuse; she already had a Masters in Writing from St. Joseph’s. She’s landed some radio gigs doing financial and traffic reports, and gave me the scoop on how being a traffic reporter really works.

She does reports for radio station in Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland. From a small office in Bucks County, she logs into traffic cams across the three states and monitors police scanners. She does live and recorded (emails them an mp3) for seventeen station and says it’s pretty faced paced. One challenge she encountered is since she’s a Philly girl, she’s not quite as familiar with some the roads down in Maryland.

On Monday night at Chickie’s & Pete’s, Emily will be one of the finalists competing for a spot on the 2012 Philadelphia Soulmates.
