Her father is the current CEO of Duck Commander, Willie Robertson. She has been on many episodes of the famous television show Duck Dynasty. She is currently working on her Live Original tour which will launch this fall. She has modeled for Sherri Hill and Rue 21, made jewelry and home goods with Glory Haus, and has written many books.

My personal “Brush with Greatness” was when I met Sadie Robertson at my hometown Mexican restaurant on July 2, 2015.

That summer was like any other, I spent most of my days by the pool or at the golf course with my boyfriend. As my last band camp of high school was approaching at the end of summer, I found myself contracting senioritis more and more each day. I went to camp for the whole week and on the last day, my best friend, Abby, and I, decided to eat at the local Mexican restaurant as a celebration for the end of our last band camp. Little did we know that we would not be going back to band camp after lunch as usual.

He was more of a fan of the Robertson family than I. He was shocked and did not believe me at first, so I showed him the picture we took together and he freaked out! After I left his house, I went home to my mother’s house and told her that I had met Sadie at lunch. She had no idea who Sadie was, so I had to show her, but after she realized who she was, she exclaimed, “Oh! That’s who she is. I just never knew her name.” I went to bed that night thinking about the kind of person Sadie Robertson is. I never knew one person could have such a big impact on young

    I never thought I could run so fast, but with all the energy I have from not doing anything all school year builds up. I used to always be into sports, always have to join all the clubs in school. But once my freshman year at Brown High I needed to change I couldn’t be Stevens’s sister or Haley’s sister anymore I had to be recognized as Emma. I always have expectations I must live up to with my Mom being Doctor Brown and my Dad being the one founded the High School I now attend. Don’t forget being behind my all star brother who is pretty much the team captain of the hockey team and known as the best player ever seen in North Carolina, and the worst part is having a sister who is six months older then you are and the most popular girl in school.

I try to blend in but with everyone knowing my family or having my family be so popular it’s very hard to hide.…

    I had just started my new summer job. It was a sports bar, filled with young girls running around innocently flirting with their customers. It was a fun job. We all walked around with the kind of care-free attitude eighteen to twenty year old girls can have, being silly and bouncing around all day. It was a well-lit bar, windows on every wall, and extremely loud. Between screaming sports fans, the chatter of the waitresses and the music that was always playing, it was exactly where an eighteen year old like me wanted to be, a constant party.…
