I’m Erin.

I have Nonprofit Leadership in my DNA. 

Throughout my career leading multiple nonprofit organizations as Executive Director, I’ve seen and done it from all angles. I'm your executive toolkit - a doer, results-driven, mission-oriented, always seeking collaboration and consensus.

I've developed a comprehensive understanding of the sector from strategy to daily operations. I bring a proven track record of turning vision into measurable impact, building collaborative teams, and driving sustainable growth while staying true to organizational missions.

My approach combines hands-on leadership with the ability to build consensus across diverse stakeholders - from boards and staff to donors and community partners.
