Hi.  I'm Erin...

Currently Vice President of a premium athleisure company in Los Angeles, I have spent the past 18 years building my career in sales, management, and leadership.

To be honest, I don't really believe in a work/life balance anymore...for me, they seem to go hand in hand.  It's more about the fluidity of each one into the other.  To say I have a hard stop in one and a hard stop in another is crazy.  I don't have a 9 to 5 career and I don't have a 5 to 9 personal life - it's all a mix and they are one and the same.

I started Workquette for two reasons:

1) As an outlet to give what I know, researched, learned, experienced (and continue to) a place to reside.

2) To celebrate the idea that no matter what, we should be having fun.  Work should not be limited to stress and anxiety, experiences with tough bosses and tight deadlines - looking forward to weekends and dreading Monday mornings is a terrible way to see your work environment.  This is YOUR life - YOUR career.  I want you to be able to flirt with work and give it a little wink.  I'm not saying work will always be fun - but to think that you are holding your breath for 5 days a week only to let it out during the weekend ....mmmm, no.  We're going to stop doing that.

So welcome to Workquette.  I hope you learn some tactics, gain some insight, and begin to flirt with work. 

- Erin
