Bio
Jantzen Pahl
Erin quickly proved herself to be an essential team member at Brightlark Digital. While initially hired as a graphic designer, Erin wasted no time stepping into CRO, SEO and website deliverables for clients. Her ability to take complex information and present it in a simple and eloquent manner was absolutely extraordinary. There were many times where we'd ideate a completely new offering for a client and shortly after, like magic, an amazing content offering would manifest itself. During my time at Brightlark, I never heard anything but praises from our clients in regards to her talents and abilities. I would whole-heartedly recommend Erin for any marketing team as I know they would be fortunate to have her in their ranks.

Erin is highly collaborative and a joy to work with. Her attention to detail and design aesthetic are incredibly developed. Erin works incredibly fast iterating on concepts and designs. She is able to both design and implement visually appealing work under pressure. She takes feedback well and integrates it into her work. I have sincerely enjoyed her focus, talent, work ethic and humor. She is a wonderful team mate and someone I come to when I need a creative perspective on any type of problem solving. I trust her point of view and think it adds so much to our team.
