We're very happy to welcome Emily Hope on to the Blank Canvas team. Assisting in the Sales & Marketing department, Emily brings boundless enthusiasm for good food and wine and knows what it's like running a small, family-owned business as she heads up one herself! 

A little more about Emily: 

A born and bred Marlburian, Emily undertook a degree in Human Nutrition, completing her Master of Science at the University of Otago. Upon handing in her thesis, she willingly started working at an international language school teaching English in the picturesque Italian city of Parma.

Italy is where Emily’s fascination of wine and food truly blossomed. Fast forward to returning home to New Zealand, Emily began a career in both public health and industry nutrition in our biggest city before making the move South to beautiful Marlborough.

Emily adores delicious food and beautiful wine and when she’s not happily working away helping Matt & Sophie dream up (and execute!) big ideas for Blank Canvas, you’ll find her in her family’s Autumnal fig orchard.
