Career Composer
Gen Z deserves better career advice — from someone who knows what you’re going through and also happens to be a full-time career coach! (I’m also obsessed with music, if you couldn’t tell!)
I’m Erin, and I’m helping YOU, Gen Z professionals, write your OWN career story. I’m giving you the job search and career advice you need to GET THAT JOB, but we’ll also talk about finding your rhythm at work, how to balance our personal and professional lives, and figure out what we’re MEANT to do.
Career advice doesn’t have to be boring or outdated, and as a fellow Gen Z, I’m here to give you the career advice I would want for myself! We can build successful careers we’re proud of — AND stay true to who we are.
Ready? Let’s go.
