Erin often views the world through a different lens. She brings her talent for storytelling to share insights about interesting people and cultures and to raise awareness for pressing issues such as drought and societal and systemic violence. Studying to become a teacher has strengthened her belief in the fundamental human right to education. She plans to advocate for integrating cultural understanding into school-based learning for every student. Outside her studies, Erin owns two small businesses with her husband. She hopes to inspire others to push boundaries and challenge the status quo through knowledge and critical thinking. As the first person in her family to attend university, she is already leading by example for her two daughters.
