She is passionate about building trusted relationships and helping clients create personalized financial strategies that support their long-term goals.
Before joining IB Wealth Management in 2024, Erin spent more than six years with Independent Bank, where she held management responsibilities focused on consumer lending and account growth. That experience provided her with a well-rounded understanding of clients’ financial needs and strengthened her passion for helping individuals and families to make informed financial decisions with confidence. She earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the International Academy of Design and Technology in Chicago and holds her Series 7 and Series 66 securities registrations.
Erin works closely with clients on comprehensive financial planning, retirement planning, investment management, education planning, and cash flow and savings strategies. She believes the best financial plans begin with understanding what matters most to each client and values a collaborative approach to helping clients pursue their financial goals.
Outside of work, Erin enjoys volunteering with Junior Achievement, traveling, reading, baking, and spending time with her two daughters.
