Erin Wilson is a multidisciplinary designer and art director based in New York City.
She finds herself consistently recognizing that she likes all of the things about design and also rarely talks in third person, but feels fairly comfortable doing so. She earned a Masters of Science from Pratt in communication design a few years ago and has been working on branding, illustration, photography and anything that can keep her hands and brain busy since then.
Besides that, she also documents the beautifully bizarre habits of Florida Women on her blog. Florida is where she was born and raised and spends a lot of time at other people's weddings. She also lives in South Slope, Brooklyn and is a designer at Droga5 where she works mostly on beer and sports.
