Interview with Erika
Tell us about yourself
Hi! When I’m not at work, you can usually find me exploring new hiking trails or traveling to fun destinations with my camera in hand. I love a good brunch spot and hanging out with my dog!
Why did you become a community education coordinator?
Becoming a community education coordinator just felt like the perfect fit for me. I love celebrating the wins, big and small, that our kiddos achieve each and every day. Plus, I have the opportunity to showcase why TEAM 4 Kids is such a fantastic place to work and for kids to receive services.
Why do you think your coworkers nominated you for being positive?
I try to always have a smile on my face, no matter what the day brings! I tend to focus on the bright side in all situations. I believe that being happy can make a big difference in our work environment!
What do you love most about working with TEAM 4 Kids?
I love working at TEAM 4 Kids because I have the best coworkers! It’s rewarding to be part of a team that makes a huge positive impact in the community.
If you could have one wish come true, what would it be?
I would wish for all the pups in the shelter to get adopted!! By me… haha.
