she, her

Asset Manager

Erin’s passion for helping support local families brought her to Homeword in 2015. She worked as our administrative specialist until becoming our asset coordinator in 2022, then quickly advanced to the role of asset manager. In her current role at Homeword, most of her time is spent overseeing property management, resident services, compliance and performance analysis. The rest of her time is split up among multiple activities such as crisis management, partner and funder reporting, interfacing with development and capital and green planning.

Since the beginning, Erin wanted a career in which she could help people and families. While she enjoys the detective work, problem-solving and out-of-the-box thinking involved in her role, what really drives her is ensuring the people in her community have safe places to call home.

Erin graduated from the University of Montana-Missoula College with A.A.S degrees in business management and administrative management. In addition, Erin holds certificates of applied science in customer relations and sales and marketing.  In 2022, she completed her CHAM Asset Management Specialist Certification.
