aka Trisha from Napoleon Dynamite

About Me


Hi, this is Emily! Please check out my official web-site: www.emilytyndall.com . I am a Utah based actress, singer, dancer, artist, world traveler, bunjee jumper...I'll try anything...well, almost anything. My film acting debut was as the role of Trisha in Fox Searchlight's Napoleon Dynamite (2004).
Although credited as Emily Kennard, I have since changed my name to Emily Tyndall because I got married to the devilishly handsome, Spencer Tyndall!
Recently I have been working on the upcoming Hannah Montana: Spotlight World Tour game for the Nintendo Wii. I did all the motion capture for Hannah including all of her dances. That was a blast!! I also was on the design team--aka the Hot Babe Trifecta!!! Some days we are divas, some days we are princesses, and other days we are super stars! Woohoo! The Hot Babe Trifecta consists of Diva Casey Nelson (in my top friends), Princess Kristin Yee, and Super Duper Star, me!! Hehe. The design team stayed strong with the help of Producer, Esquire Richard Reagan. Click HERE to pre-order the game on Amazon!
Some of my other recent credits include Ruby in Pirates of the Great Salt Lake and Jamie in Forever Strong.
My favorite color is yellow. My favorite food is cereal, without question. If I had one wish...I would wish that I could fly. If I had two wishes...it would be that Spencer and I would leave this life at the same time like in "The Notebook"...
