Erin serves as the firm’s point person on all materials, website and E-News development work for our clients, and leads projects involving media outreach and event planning.

She brings training in international affairs, experience with both governmental and non-governmental organizations, and a richly cross-cultural personal background to her work with us. Prior to joining KRC, Erin was a legislative assistant to Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA 29). In this capacity, Erin conducted research, made policy recommendations and crafted talking points on key issues, collaborated with other congressional offices to achieve non-proliferation, diplomatic and humanitarian policy goals, met with lobbyists and members of constituent groups, drafted legislation and correspondence to constituents, policymakers, and foreign dignitaries, and assisted in coordinating the Congressman’s participation in the Democratic National Convention in the run-up to the 2004 presidential election. In Washington D.C., Erin also gained experience as a graduate fellow for the federal government, where she worked as a political research analyst, specializing in international affairs.

Deeply concerned about children’s welfare, Erin helped coordinate fundraising for the Southern California office of The U.S. Fund for the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), and went on to found Bears for UNICEF, a U.C. Berkeley affiliate of the U.S. Fund for UNICEF.

Erin has a Bachelor’s degree in International Relations from U.C. Berkeley and a Master’s in International Policy from the Monterey Institute of International Studies, where she specialized in conflict resolution. She is a graduate of Emerge California and the National Outdoor Leadership School and is fluent in both Indonesian and Spanish.
