Erin is deeply committed to the community she loves and calls home\u2013 just one of the reasons she decided to take on the role of helping to lead our foundation as Board Chair this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat gives me hope is Miami\u2019s resilience, its desire to welcome so many into our community, and as a result, the incredible diversity of its people,\u201d Erin said.<\/p>\n

Community<\/em><\/h2>\n

\"Erin<\/p>\n

As a real estate investment professional, her journey has centered on creating value and building connections, and she sees this role as an extension of that mission.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want all Miamians to know that they have a role to play in shaping the future of our city,\u201d Erin said. \u201cWhether through acts of kindness, civic engagement, or philanthropy\u2013 every contribution matters. Together, we can continue to build a Greater Miami that is vibrant, inclusive, and full of opportunity for generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

Serving as president of Monument Capital Management, she has overseen the strategic growth of the firm with over 20 years of experience in multiple facets of the financial services arena. In addition, Erin has sat on various boards, including those of Baptist Health Foundation and March of Dimes.<\/p>\n

With her impressive history and current leadership, driving lasting change and collective impact is her ultimate goal. Her ambition is perfectly aligned with the word that she believes sums up the foundation\u2014catalyst.<\/p>\n

Catalyst<\/em><\/h2>\n

\u201cThe Miami Foundation is a catalyst for change and progress by connecting people, resources, and ideas in a way that amplifies impact and advances solutions to some of our community\u2019s most pressing challenges,\u201d Erin said. \u201cThe Foundation transforms generosity into measurable, lasting outcomes for our community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Erin said she has distinctly enjoyed watching the foundation grow under the leadership of Rebecca Fishman Lipsey, and looks forward to the magic that lies ahead, as they continue to work together.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am particularly inspired by the leadership of Rebecca,\u201d Erin said. \u201cSince her appointment in 2020, Rebecca has grown the Foundation by 50% and I know, in her mind, she is just getting started. She thinks big, values collaboration, and is driven by achieving excellence.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aside from being a tremendous philanthropic leader, what can you find Erin doing? Spending time with her family and close friends\u2013 where she finds the most joy!<\/p>\n

\u201cI always say, the little things are the big things in life,\u201d Erin said. \u201cI love having people at the house whether that is family or friends, including my son\u2019s friends; we enjoy sharing meals, time on the patio, playing games, laughing, and relaxing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Looking Forward<\/em><\/h2>\n

\"Erin<\/strong><\/p>\n

Erin,<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are grateful you have chosen to step into this role for our foundation, and we don\u2019t take this commitment for granted. We look forward to the impact of your leadership as Board Chair, and can\u2019t wait to\u00a0<\/span>love Miami<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>and be\u00a0<\/span>catalysts for change<\/em><\/strong>, together.<\/p>\n

We conclude this welcome note with some wise, encouraging words to you, from our outgoing Board Chair, Sheldon Anderson.<\/p>\n

\u201cUse your vast talents to joyously support a community jewel and don\u2019t hold back,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<\/span>\u2013 Sheldon Anderson.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
