Bio
I came to Miss Porter's in 2009 as Dean of College Counseling, having previously worked in admissions and college counseling in both higher education and secondary schools. I was drawn here by the opportunity to return to an all-girls' setting, having graduated from The Ethel Walker School myself. Counseling young women as they begin to imagine the next steps in their educational and life journey is a joy and a privilege. I also serve as the Past-Chair of the Board of the National Association of College Counselors in Independent Schools (ACCIS) and regularly travel to colleges and universities around the country and across the world to build relationships on behalf of Porter's.
In my spare time, I volunteer for two foundations that raise service dogs for careers guiding the blind and supporting children with developmental disabilities.

In addition to her professional knowledge, Ericka gained first hand experience of the college process as her son applied to college last year. Ericka believes in the power of education to help us live the lives we envision for ourselves, and she is particularly excited about Porter’s innovative and forward-thinking approach to the education of young women and support of equity and inclusion.

Bio
It has been a joy to be part of the Porter’s community since 2011, serving as a college counselor, with some time in the admissions office as well. I’ve had the privilege of helping girls come to Porter’s and then prepare them as they move on to new adventures upon graduation. My own academic path included a bachelor’s degree in political science and a master’s degree in public health. Professionally, I drew on that passion for political science at The Washington Post and went on to positions in health care policy and academic administration at Johns Hopkins University and Georgetown University. My favorite work has centered on helping talented students investigate and plan for their own next steps. And most of all I enjoy when Ancients keep in touch to share their successes with us. At home, I live in Simsbury with my husband and two daughters.
