About the Episode

On this week’s episode of The Enrollify Podcast, Zach sits down with Erin Stine, an Account Executive at CampusESP, an edtech company that focuses on parent and family communication and engagement to help universities impact enrollment, student success, retention, and annual giving. 

In March of 2009, Erin became an admissions counselor at The Parson’s School of Design, which is a part of The New School in New York City. Over the course of a decade, Erin worked her way up to the role of Associate Vice President of Enrollment — just a step away from a VP. But this past July, she left higher education and started working in sales at CampusESP — a shift that, at first glance, seemed a bit strange. 

Tune in to hear the story behind how Erin came to terms with the fact that as prestigious as the VP title was, she ultimately didn’t want the post. To learn more about Erin's story and the current work she does at CampusESP, you can connect with her on LinkedIn here.
