I'm a heart and
people centered human and professional.
I've been you. I am you. I've grown and fostered businesses from the ground up ranging from
the male dominated fields of general contracting and manufacturing to consulting and beyond.
I've been your team. I am your team. I've worked for and with many groups of people, including
being a current board member and secretary of Charleston Hope.
Through the years I've gained valuable experiences and knowledge that've led me to becoming,
if I don't say so myself, a pretty darn business savvy, adaptable, and emotionally intelligent human, with what you might say is a "beachside barefoot approach". What I know is, or to quote the great singer and writer Alicia Beth Moore/Pink, "All I know so far" is...life and business can be challenging and confusing but when you prioritize supporting and caring about people, community, and having fun together everything else tends to fall into place. Don't worry I do own, wear, and encourage wearing shoes where and when needed ~ safety first of course!
When I'm not cozy at home, working, learning, walking on the beach, and/or hanging out with or dancing with people I love and enjoy I'm often writing poetry. Take a "walk" on over to "Simple" Lady Poetry if you'd like to read some more of my poems...
If you’re ready to partner with someone with tons of hands-on, in-the-trenches experience, who’s a seeker of knowledge (including in my current passion of latin dance), and outside guidance and one who is naturally intuitive, a total-picture thinker, and passionate about enjoying life, people, and her work…
I’m your Solutions “Lady!”
"Erin has a remarkable ability to connect with others on a deeply relational level.
She creates a safe, welcoming space where ideas can flow freely, and her non-threatening
approach to brainstorming and collaboration makes everyone feel heard and valued.
Working with her is both refreshing and inspiring."
Tevin Sims, Advancement Director ~ Charleston Hope
