Meet Erin, a Homegrown Accounting Hero!
I would say I am not the typical accountant. I enjoy the numbers and accounting, but also enjoy spending hanging out with friends or going to a party. Some background – I am a mom of 3 boys and happily married. I live and grew up in Northern Wilmington Delaware. I have my bachelor’s and master s in accounting. Before I joined Breakwater in September of 2020, I was in the tax world for 16 years.
My favorite part of Breakwater are the people (love that we are women run) and the variety of clients I get to work on.
I think the best memory was our first all staff retreat to Mexico. I was so much fun hanging out with my co-workers outside the realm of working.
