Before Youtube
Before her break on YouTube in 2017, Emma Chamberlain was a normal high school student from San Bruno, California. Her father, Michael Chamberlain, is an artist and helped film and photograph Emma in the beginning of her career.
From DIY to Fame
Chamberlain began her career making videos, that she tells Forbes, she deemed to be "popular" when she first started to create content on Youtube.
Her channel began to pick up when she began taking on a more "lifestyle" vlog approach. She filmed videos in school, and was open about her decision to stop attending formal high school. Her authenticity, meshed with her funny personality, helped her channel gain subscribers seemingly overnight, and she quickly became the funniest person on YouTube.
Collaboration
In late 2018, Chamberlain began collaborating with other popular creators on YouTube. Herself, James Charles, and the Dolan Twins - Ethan and Grayson Dolan, created what they called the "Sister Squad".
During the holiday season, the four created content such as style videos, holiday gift exchanges, and other miscellaneous content on all three of their channels. The "Sister Squad" took over YouTube for those months, and had some of the most watched videos on YouTube in late 2018 and into early 2019.

LUXURY FASHION ICON
In March 2019, at just 17 years old and formerly known for popular thrifting videos, Chamberlain became a sponsored creator for Louis Vuitton at Paris Fashion Week. She attended and did promotion for and wearing the popular luxury brand.
In March 2020, Emma was invited back to Paris Fashion week with Louis Vuitton. This time, she was doing more promotion for Louis Vuitton's "LV TV" and photographs for the luxury brand.
This collaboration came as a big break for Emma in her young career, and she began creating more fashion content. She was accepted into the fashion world, making the 18 year old even more diverse in the creator world.
