Testimonials

Erin is a wonderful leader and strategist. She comes up with thoughtful integrated ideas and simplifies the path to execution. She is incredibly thorough in bringing creative business pursuits forward and goes above and beyond to deliver a meaningful product. I would highly recommend her for any project.
— Jodi Finer, Creative Director & Founder
While Erin’s title says Sr. Archive Manager, she is so much more. She took the archive position and truly expanded what that meant to encompassing how large, global and complex organizations think about how to leverage knowledge and history to influence the present and shape the future. As a customer and partner she continues to identify key business cases where Enwoven can produce value and has helped us evolve our platform whether it was around workflow integration or user experience. She has a tremendous ability to bring people together and align them around a vision as well as give folks a platform and space to have their voices heard. As a CEO of a tech company it’s been great to have not only an active customer, but a honest and dynamic thought partner.
— Niles Lichtenstein, CEO & Founder

She cares and thinks deeply about the world and is a value add in any organization / will make the culture better in the process!
