Her first starring role was on the fantasy drama, Beastmaster. When her agent told her of a role in the US, as newcomer Tess in the hit series Roswell, she flew out and auditioned. After landing the role, she was written out of 'Beastmaster' and started work as Tess, an alien. She relocated to California and was on Roswell before she even owned an apartment.

After 2 years on the show, she then made notable guest appearances in CSI: Miami and The Handler.

She stayed in TV, playing the bad girl Chris in Carrie, a movie made for TV. She also changed genres, starring in Santa Slay, a black comedy.

Emilie has shown her versatility by branching out into film, making her debut at Sundance 2005 with the the award-winning indie film Brick. She is also due to star in the upcoming film The Hills Have Eyes in 2006.

She is now on the Emmy-award winning ABC series Lost, playing Claire, a young Australian who gave birth on the mysterious island and has a close relationship with heroin-addict Charlie, played by Dominic Monaghan
