Emilie is co-Founder and CEO of Unearth Corp, which transfers technology from space programs into the global energy industry. Unearth Corp proving up a technology that could take 40% of cost out of a key process in the energy industry.

From 1999 - 2002, Emilie consulted on the sweeping deregulation of the energy and water markets in Australia and New Zealand, facilitating complex negotiations between senior executives, regulators and Government Ministers.
