A lifelong resident of Virginia, Erin moved to Southern California in 2016 following her graduation from the College of William and Mary with a BA in Religious Studies. She completed her Masters of Divinity from Claremont School of Theology in 2019, followed by four units of Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) at PIH-Health Hospital between 2019 and 2021.

An import from the United Methodist tradition, Erin joined First Christian Church Pomona and the DOC in January 2022. She currently splits her time between FCC and per diem chaplaincy at Providence Mission Hospital. Erin was taken under care by the Pacific Southwest Region in November 2023; she is currently pursuing both ordination through the DOC and board certification through the Association of Professional Chaplains.

If you’d like to make her day, show her pictures of your pets and tell her what your bird call would be. She would love to hear about both.
