A Montreal native, Hampshire can be seen starring in two vastly different television series at the same time. Emily portrays fan favorite ’Stevie Budd' in the Pop/Netflix comedy series “Schitt’s Creek,” opposite Eugene Levy and Catherine O’Hara, for which she has received multiple Canadian Screen Awards.
