Erica's dedication and excellence truly set her apart. Her organizational skills and professional demeanor create a thriving environment for all of us. But Erica is more than just a leader; she's a mentor and a beacon of support. Her colleagues often say that her positive attitude and willingness to help everyone make her an irreplaceable part of our team. Erica is the “glue” that holds Momentum Bangor together, ensuring everything runs smoothly.
Thank you, Erica, for being such an outstanding role model and invaluable team member. Your hard work and positive spirit inspire us all. Keep shining brightly, because you truly are a star!
What her colleagues are saying!
“A perfect choice for the spotlight for someone who does not seek attention! Erica impresses by doing her job to the fullest and not having to toot her own horn. She demonstrates excellent organizational skills and presents with a professional demeanor at all times. Her work ethic inspires others to reach her standards and she is quick to praise others when they demonstrate the commitment to excellence while supporting others as she does. Anytime she is called upon to DSP, she exemplifies what it means to help others live their best life. She is patient while educating and provides support that allows others to learn from their mistakes without being at risk. Blessed to have her as a teammate”
“I just want to say to Erica: Thank you for being such an amazing mentor/supervisor. Without you to help guide me on the path I need to succeed I would be struggling. Thank you for being an amazing role model for me in this field of work! Keep doing what you're doing!”
“Erica is a Rockstar at the Bangor office. She is knowledgeable and always willing to lend a helping hand! She always has a positive attitude and a smile on her face.”
“Erica is an organizational dynamo! She can orchestrate a Nature Trek Trip to anywhere, or help others do the same. Her dedication to the people supported at Momentum is a super focused approach. We are very fortunate to have her as part of the Momentum Team!”
“Erica is very organized and pays attention to detail. Erica is a team player and keeps everything running smoothly at Momentum. I was telling my husband that she is the glue that keeps everyone going in the right track.”
“My thoughts on Erica: Every office would run smoother with an Erica on their team. She cares. Whether it's directly teaching as a DSP or making sure everyone's "duck's are in a row" as an administrator, Erica displays a consistent commitment to helping our athletes crush their goals. The value of Erica's presence is felt most keenly in her absence.”
“ "Erica provides a sense of protection, care, and love here at Momentum. Erica is always a call away for advice, support, and any problem solving needed to be done. We are thankful to have her grateful not greedy mindset/energy."
"Erica's exceptional talent and organizational skills keep the Bangor office thriving. Revel in your well-deserved moment in the spotlight as we proudly proclaim your extraordinary abilities to the world."
“Erica is hardworking, organized and cares about the people she supports. Erica can lead anything and is a great resource!”
“I love Erica's Bistro Night fundraiser. It was so fun this year at the snowmobile club. The venue was great, the food was fantastic & staff worked hard & had a great time working. I hope we get to do it again next year.”
“Erica's talent of organization and attention to detail is only surpassed by her amazing drive and energy to motivate and inspire our crew. She eagerly takes on challenges and has shown again, and again that a positive attitude and the spirit of adventure creates the MAGIC that is Momentum!!”
Get to know Erica!
How Long have you been with Momentum ?
“Going on 8 years this May!”
What do you like most about what we do here?
“I enjoy seeing our participants find joy in any opportunity that is meaningful to them at Momentum. Watching a normally quiet individual open up on a camping trip. Hearing the excitement after a day of volunteering. Seeing them light up when they compete in Special Olympics. The exhaustion after a day of hiking or kayaking with nature trek. I like watching clients take leadership in group choices, trips, and activities at program which then guides and propels us forward.”
What is your Favorite Momentum moment?
“My favorite summer moments are always coaching and participating in the Jugtown challenge each year - seeing participants put in the hard work all spring and summer, then test their limits on race day and celebrate their accomplishments. Hiking Mt. Katahdin last August and traveling to Yosemite National Park last September. It was just like traveling and exploring with a big group of friends. We saw so many amazing sights on both trips!”
If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
“To be in multiple places at once. There is so much I want to see and do and am constantly pulled in multiple directions. Between kids' sports, Nature trekking with Momentum, running all the races, hiking and traveling the world.”
What is one thing people don't know about you , that they would be surprised to find out?
“I'm a bit of a thrill seeker; I've been skydiving, parasailing, and love roller coasters.”
What show(s) are you currently Binge watching, or books you are reading?
“Just finished the newest season of Virgin River on Netflix. Currently reading Hatchet by Gary Paulsen with my son as well as Mental Toughness for Young Athletes.”
What is one thing on your bucket list ?
“I have two things on my current bucket list. I would love to run the Boston marathon as a guide for a visually impaired runner or an athlete with disabilities. I also want to run an ultra-marathon in the next few years!”
