Most recently the spokesperson, chief communications strategist, and senior advisor to US Congressman Troy Balderson, Erin has spent years building her career in the nation’s capital.

Throughout 2020, Erin led a sitting member of Congress’ response to the COVID-19 pandemic through rapid, honest dissemination of information and robust legislative and outreach strategies, helping him provide answers and relief to constituents, and cementing him as a source of confidence during a moment of immense pressure and widespread mistrust. Erin brings this background to clients by cutting through the noise and helping each speak to the right people, see a broad vision to meet their goals, and meet those goals through attention to detail and persistence.
