Erin in a true leader in every sense of the word. Not only does she bring her best to every situation, but she empowers those around her to rise to a new level of excellence. I've had the pleasure of reporting to Erin at two different companies and can honestly say that I could not have dreamed up a better manager. She sets high but attainable standards, is thoughtful and strategic with feedback, and is always approachable and empathetic. Erin taught me so much about marketing—specifically audience development, SEO, and content marketing— and leadership in general. Along with being a truly fantastic manager, Erin has superior data analysis and project management skills. She is able to tackle massive and complex challenges with (what seems like) ease. She also has the rare ability to be both creative and analyical— always bringing data and innovation to the table. Erin's intellect, creativity, leadership, and overall excellence would be a rare and irreplaceable asset to any company.

Erin and I worked together on several projects at About.com. She is a thoughtful, focused Web editor who can get multiple tasks done with efficiency and calm. She is very generous with her time and expertise. For example, she worked with her fellow About editors to help them maximize their social media efforts. Erin is driven and not afraid to challenge herself. I think she could achieve almost anything she sets her mind on.

      I lead a cross-functional team focused on growth through experimentation. I also built and lead our content and marketing teams, supporting the supply and demand side of our marketplace and SaaS offering. We're dedicated to customer empathy, data backed decision making (quant and qual), and thinking critically while moving fast. It's a lot of fun. ✅
