Emma Diehl

Emma is a writer, editor, and journalist with a focus on home improvement, technology, and finance. Her content has helped people do everything from filing their tax returns to staying on top of home maintenance. 

When she’s not writing about how to improve a home, she’s probably doing it. When her 100-year-old home suffered severe water damage, she took on the general contractor role, overseeing the project and learning a lot along the way.

Emma has had work published on NPR and the Huffington Post, in addition to home-related content on Apartment Therapy, HomeLight, SoFi, and more. If Emma’s not writing, she's probably tackling her next DIY, or maintaining the Little Free DVD Library she runs outside her home.
