Once you’ve worked once with me I can guarantee you’ll be happy to keep our relationship going. I seek to partner with brands that I rely upon, trust and use myself.

“I love everything about the Bender family and their blog! Over the past year, we have worked with Erin Bender on several projects, and I couldn’t be happier with the content she created for Florida. Her energy and humor make her such a delight to work with and I am glad to also call her my friend.
