Erin is currently focusing her efforts at Glenbrook on client engagements in B2B payments and social media/Web 2.0 in banking and financial services.
Erin has over twelve years of experience leading increasingly complex business-to-business (B2B) payment initiatives for corporate clients and advising financial institutions on the development of their cash management capabilities.
Erin's practice enables her corporate clients to reduce costs and increase working capital through technology enhancements, electronic payment, increased ERP efficiency, and strategic implementation of treasury management solutions. In addition, she helps financial institutions and technology companies develop profitable treasury products that deliver effective results for their corporate customers.
Erin's blog posts and articles cover topics related to corporate finance, treasury technology, B2B payments, change leadership and financial process improvement.
Before joining Glenbrook, Erin was the founder of Forte Financial, a consulting firm focused on corporate finance efficiency, accuracy, and technology. Her work is grounded in proven change leadership and program management methodology, ensuring lasting results. She believes that "great strategy and clever technology solutions are too often casualties of poor execution" and is therefore committed to supporting clients from concept to reality.
Prior to Forte Financial, Erin spent her early career in advertising and publicity. She was an Advertising Account Executive in Eastern Europe in the early 1990s during a period of historic economic and social transformation. Later she witnessed firsthand the transformation of the publishing industry as chain book stores became dominant and an Internet upstart named Amazon ventured into book selling.
Erin holds a B.A. in English from the University of California, Davis, and an MBA from the Marshall School of Business at the University of Southern California. She is a Certified Treasury Professional (CTP), a certification granted by the Association of Financial Professionals.
She is on the board of the Financial Women's Association of San Francisco and President of the San Francisco Treasury Management Association.
