Show Notes

After years of, in her words, corporate engineer drudgery, Erin abruptly quit her job and jumped headfirst into finding a way to make it on her own. Seven years later, she has built an optical engineering consultancy, and grown a network of talented, independent hardware engineers, many of whom she coached to help them find the tools and mindset needed to survive on their own.
