Erin leads the Working Lands focus area at Earth Economics. Her passion for sustainable agriculture drives her to seek solutions that simultaneously improve the well-being of farms and the environment. Born and raised in Louisiana, Erin’s experience around the muddy Mississippi inspired an interest in projects that improve the health of our water. She also spent time farming in the Panamanian jungle, surveying dairy farmers throughout rural Louisiana, and researching methods to transform human and animal waste into fertilizer across Washington state. When not encouraging co-workers to invite their pets on Zoom calls, Erin enjoys Barre class, embroidery, and graphic design. As a Project Director at Earth Economics, Erin hopes to continue developing solutions for healthy ecosystems and thriving communities.
