As the founder of EBN Music, a small but vibrant music studio she established in 2020, Emily teaches piano and voice lessons tailored to each student, inspiring a lifelong love of music in all who walk through her door.

Emily holds a BA in music education from Freed-Hardeman University and an MSEd in educational technology from Missouri State University. When she's not teaching, Emily cherishes time with her husband of 15 years; their beautiful daughter, born in 2024; and their two playful German shepherds. Malgorzata Detner is a Poland-based illustrator, born in 1989. She currently lives with her family, a cocker spaniel, snails, and two lovely rats in Warsaw. Her love of drawing began at a young age, influenced by her mother's paintings, but grew seriously when she decided to pursue art in middle school. Although Malgorzata initially pursued a career in costume design with an interest in Victorian dresses, her daughter's birth made her return to traditional painting and digital illustration. Influenced by old animation, mysterious, fantastic worlds, animals, and creatures in vibrant colors are what she likes drawing the most. She draws digitally but also likes to incorporate hand-painted textures into her work. Malgorzata loves creating illustrations that remind her of childhood memories.
