Emma Kroeger (Class of 2008) has built a vibrant and unconventional creative life in London, blending performance, music, travel and self-expression. After moving to the UK following her studies at Curtin University, Emma found her place in East London's creative community, where she began DJing and exploring drag performance.

Performing under her drag persona Milk Shandy, Emma has gone on to appear at internationally renowned events and venues including Eurovision, Glastonbury, the Barbican and the National Theatre. Drawing inspiration from music, fashion and culture, her work celebrates creativity, individuality and connection.

Alongside her creative career, Emma has embraced opportunities to travel extensively, finding inspiration in experiences across Europe and Asia. Reflecting on her journey, she credits much of her success to a willingness to take risks, challenge expectations and step outside her comfort zone.

Emma's story is a powerful reminder that career paths are rarely linear and that some of life's most rewarding opportunities can come from saying yes to the unexpected.
