ERIN SCHMIDT
ABOUT ME
I was born and raised in Northern California and developed a love for travel early on as I visited around 20 states, and several countries before I left for college. My exposure to so many environments led me to desire a new adventure and attend college in North Carolina at Elon University. I was there 1.5 years before I decided it wasn't the right fit for me. After coming home to reorganize, I was off again and decided to bear the cold in Columbus, OH, where I would get a B.A. in Strategic Communications at The Ohio State University in 2018.
Since graduating I have been on a journey to discover a career path brings me joy and satisfaction. I have worked in ministry, business administration, logistics, retail, public health, and communications. I am currently looking for a communications position with a company I am passionate about where I can grow and be a positive and encouraging light.
I am an old soul and free spirit who embraces change. I am a natural problem solver and love to write. One day I would love to write a book about the wild ride I have been on. I love having spontaneous dance parties, swimming, hiking and spending hours and way too much money at coffee shops. I am passionate about erasing mental health stigma and helping people experience healing.
“I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious Ambiguity.”
