LEADERSHIP
If you couldn’t tell my name is Erin, I also been known to answer to “ET.” I have had a passion for art my entire life. I love looking at everything around me as inspiration for my designs. I have been in the design industry for 17+ years. I have experience as a Graphic Designer, Manager of Publications and most recently as the Senior Manager of Creative Services for the Pittsburgh Penguins as member of their marketing department.
As a designer and design manager I welcome new challenges. I like to learn, get creative, and build on my skills to be able to excel for both myself and my team. I have been striving to advance my skills as a leader over the past few years. I have been working hard to build on my interpersonal skills along with taking on larger responsibilities.
My passion in graphic design is with multi-page publications, but I embrace every project that I commit too. I am also a dog mom to Nala and enjoy cooking, arts and crafts, gardening, villaging, traveling and the occasional camping trip in my spare time.
“My name is Nala. I am an Australian Cattle dog who loves snuggles, kisses, walks and car rides.”

At the time of her hire, Erin's prior experience as a tutor in her school’s learning lab made her an appealing candidate. Over the years, her ability to mentor and support her coworkers at the Penguins with respect and patience was instrumental in fostering a positive work environment.
Erin could be counted on to take the lead on new projects and ensure their successful completion within a specific timeline. She has shown tremendous professional growth over the years and is ready to take on a leadership role within an organization.”

“Erin and I worked together on producing content for the Penguins game program – IceTime. We collaborated on several ideas for content, such as feature stories, player Q and As, prospect profiles and NHL-related pieces. Once the content was produced, Erin placed it within the program to her specific art design.
Erin is enthusiastic, highly motivated, organized and reliable. She has always conducted herself with a professional demeanor and it’s a joy working with her.”
