She studied communication sciences and disorders as an undergrad at the University of Cincinnati and then earned an MA in speech-language pathology from Eastern Michigan University. Between undergrad and graduate school, Erin obtained her nursing assistant license working as an STNA during grad school, prior to getting a job as an SLP. Erin has spent her whole career in SNFs across four states, though she’s lost count of the number of facilities. Since moving to Minnesota, she’s found my inner country girl—picking up gardening, canning, and chopping wood. Erin also enjoys biking, camping, kayaking, and reading when she’s not keeping her puppy out of trouble.
