Growing up, Erin always hoped to find a freelancing gig that would allow her to combine her love for writing with her love for going out -- and thanks to Centerstage, life is like Disney World (with bartenders!). A longtime Chicago resident, Erin graduated from Northwestern University in 1998 and has worked for a number of teen, women's and specialty publications, taught a journalism class at Columbia College and briefly lived in LA on and off for a year. However, unable to find a decent pizza west of Utah, Erin returned to the Windy City, where she now resides and works on the North Side. When she's not out checking out new bars, Erin can typically be found running, buying shoes, making long "to do" lists that never seem to "be done," or gently patting her liver dry. (This freelancing gig is kind of hard on the life expectancy.) Oh, and donning a cape and silver mask to roam the city and fight crime at night. That too. |
