New Employee Spotlight: Erin Spencer

We’re excited to introduce Erin Spencer as the 16th member of Blue Ion! Erin is also the 6th member of our performance marketing team. She grew up just a short drive from here in Summerville, and after a stint in Columbia at USC and a formative summer in NYC, she’s made it back – to the benefit of us and the Charleston creative community.

Erin’s official title is Junior Performance Marketer, and she’ll be responsible for helping us continue to grow our paid and earned media efforts, along with our burgeoning marketing automation services.

Say hello on twitter, and learn more in this informative interview / expose.

What are your Nicknames?
EMoney or ESpence. Somehow my nicknames have more street cred than I do.

What would be the title of your autobiography?
Sometimes I finish a book I start.

What’s the weirdest thing you’ve ever eaten?
Dog food. My sister and I were cruel in truth or dare.

What one food do you wish had zero calories?
Mashed potatoes. That would be a game changer on Thanksgiving.

If you could have any super power, what would it be and why?
Remember how Peter on “Heroes” could absorb all of the powers? I want that one.

If you could witness any historical event, what would you want to see?

If you were to write a self help book, what would the topic be?
How to stop reading self help books because they are awful.

If you were a Crayola crayon, what color would you be?
Razzmatazz. It’s like hot pink but better because the name is Razzmatazz.
