Hi, I’m Erin —
I’ve spent the last 15+ years honing my skills as a marketer, agency leader, editor, and content creator.
I’ve worked in everything from fashion and beauty editorial for monthly women’s glossy to demand generation for a B2B tech company. And loved it all!
In between, there was a stint as a retail manager with J. Crew while I freelanced and consulted — and juggled challenging personalities and demanding schedules. I loved the fashion and running my store’s business.
Lifelong learning is essential to my success and centered in everything that makes me good at what I do. And you never know where the creative spark is going to come from!
Atlanta is home right now, but I’m just as happy by the water as a born Great Laker. My favorite beaches are as far flung as the Leelanau Peninsula in Michigan, Duck, NC, and Marco Island, Florida.
If I’m not working or in the water, you’ll find me with a book or paintbrush in my hands — or at the movies. In 2015, I created the annual #OscarBinge challenge to watch every nominated film between the morning they are announced and awards night. That translates to scheduling time for about 30 movies in 30 days most years. It’s so much fun to share my list every year and plan out the viewing schedule!
