Meet Emilee
Meet the builder
The mom your kid's classmates call the LEGO lady.
Emilee Dahl went from building her first set with her son in 2020 to competing under Will Arnett's lights on FOX's LEGO® Masters. The TRĀ is the tray she designed along the way, for the way real families actually build.
From one set to the national stage
During the family's travel nurse years, thirteen moves in two years, Emilee bought her first LEGO® set to build with her son. It didn't stay casual. In her own words: "When we had to get a four-bedroom when we only have two kids, because I had to have a room full of LEGO®, is when I realized this passion is more than just a hobby."
Building in cars, hotels, and rentals meant scattered bricks and lost instructions. Emilee sketched the fix at a kitchen table, and the first TRĀ was born.
LEGO® Masters casting found Emilee through her Instagram builds. Season 4: twelve teams, a $100,000 prize, and Team Pink (Emilee and Kelly) building under network TV deadlines all the way to the semifinals, including their 12 hour Ladybug Flight roller coaster build.
You'll find Emilee creating for 22,000+ followers, building at Arizona Brick Co. in Chandler, and refining the TRĀ.
