Emily Mills never stopped drawing after childhood. She realized early on that she had a natural gift for illustration. Her first paying gig as an illustrator was for the school paper in college and she hasn’t looked back since. After graduating college in the middle of the great recession, she decided to move to Nashville because of it’s diverse artistic culture. Her first book, “The Art of Visual Notetaking” teaches basic skills to take effective sketchnotes, which is ideal for documenting processes, planning projects, outlining ideas, and capturing information.

Emily Mills is a freelance illustrator, professional visual notetaker for The Sketch Effect, and teaches online sketchnoting classes at SketchnoteAcademy.com. She travels all over Middle Tennessee capturing visual notes for clients as well as teaching workshops all over the country.
