Erin Schultz is a writer, editor, multimedia journalist, and publicist. Armed with a master’s degree in journalism from
Columbia University, Erin has two decades of experience working in media of several formats -- from local to national outlets -- expressing her passion for authentic storytelling. A recent stint as an editor in the contributed content department at
Entrepreneur.com in Manhattan opened her eyes to the thriving entrepreneurial world of CEOs, founders and everyone in between working hard to realize their business dreams.
Having been featured as an expert source in local and national media herself, Erin knows all about the power of leveraging media for her own professional pursuits. Originally from Michigan, Erin was profiled several times in the local media during her stint as the lead singer of a popular local band in her early 20s. She was interviewed at length on WPKN 89.5, a Connecticut radio station, in 2011 when she headed up a new Patch.com news website on the East End of Long Island. She was also a source for a Discovery Channel special in 2012. With all of her experience in the working world, Erin knows the highs and lows of trying to find the right career path and has recently taken to social media to help people do just that. Check out this popular piece she wrote on LinkedIn and this podcast, "How Entrepreneurs Can Thrive in the Gig Economy"
Erin now works remotely on Long Island. Her writing has been published all over the U.S. (and a few other countries). When Erin isn’t polishing content to perfection or making people famous, she enjoys long-distance running, in-depth conversation at Irish Pubs, and standing ovations at karaoke nights. She also is currently working on a book about her past adventures in journalism.
