Erin also began college at the age of 16 and received her undergraduate degree in Political Science from North Carolina State University.

Erin is known to approach cases with a unique passion and intensity. She came to the practice of law as a natural extension of her fearlessness and strong public speaking and debating skills. She prides herself on being not only a listening ear, but a backbone, for her clients during difficult and confusing times. Erin grew up riding hunter/jumper horses and explains to people the profound impact of “learning to fly” on their backs at a young age. Though she no longer “flies,” Erin carries the grit, determination, sense of responsibility and fearlessness with her as a lawyer.

When Erin isn’t at work, she is most definitely outside. Her typical day is different than it is for most people. It begins and ends on her hobby farm where she cares for her most beloved animals—her goats. She also tends to horses, donkeys, poultry and a small herd of rescue dogs. Animal rescue work is one of her great passions. If she’s not with her animals, you’ll find Erin on a lake, in a river or on a mountain.
