She has spent twelve years developing strategies, defining solutions, honing business cases, and guiding implementations that deliver measureable results for her clients.

"Erin brings to Glenbrook deep experience addressing corporate finance challenges related to business-to-business payments," said Scott Loftesness, a managing partner with Glenbrook. "As editor of Payments News, I welcome readers of Erin’s blog and look forward to working with her to expand the breadth of Glenbrook’s blog content and community.”
