She helps growth-minded leaders build cultures of connection to retain and inspire their teams and customers. Ten years in hospitality leadership plus two years in the Peace Corps combined with fifteen years of facilitating workshops to thousands of participants in seven countries later\, if there’s one truth she’s discovered\, it’s this: the more organizations\, leaders\, and frontline teams insist their problems are unique\, the more evidence she discovers that the traits that connect us are universal. It all comes down to human connection. Erin works with leaders and organizations\, from the frontline to the C-Suite\, teaching them to redefine perceived problems with leadership\, engagement\, and loyalty\, and focus on the real issue: connection. While she currently calls Neptune Beach\, Florida home — Erin identifies as a Jersey Girl\, with all the stamina to rock ten years in hospitality leadership; the strength to survive two years in the Peace Corps in Panama; the savvy to consult for the past fifteen years with clients ranging from Delta Airlines to The Dollar Tree\, BMW to the Kennedy Center\, Mazda to Goodwill\, and Amgen to Do it Best; and the smarts to get OUT of Jersey and see the world. \nAndrew Biondo\, OD​\nDr. Andrew Biondo owns Kirkwood Eye Associates in St. Louis\, a specialty contact lens practice that focuses on scleral lenses for irregular cornea and dry eye. They also have a large myopia control practice that utilizes orthokeratology\, atropine therapy and other specialty contact lenses.

She is a Diplomate of the American Board of Optometry who provides full scope optometric. She has an extensive background in myopia management and a passion for specialty contact lenses for the treatment of corneal diseases. She has completed additional training in the treatment and management of dry eye disease and spearheads the dry eye specialty division at Bellaire Family Eye Care. \nEric K. Botts\, OD\nEric K. Botts has a Doctorate of Optometry from Southern College of Optometry\, is a Third Party Trustee for Illinois Optometric Association\, the past president of the Energeyes Association\, the Founder & Doctor of InnovativeEyes Clinic\, and the Founder & CEO of OBC Insurance Billing and Credentialing Specialists.

He has hosted well over 250 Continuing Education Courses for thousands of fellow ODs. \nShana Harrison\nShana Harrison has been certified by the American Board of Opticianry and has 25 years’ experience in the optical field. In addition\, she has been a nationally certified paraoptometric assistant (CPOA)\, having passed the national certification examination given by the American Optometric Association\, since July 2008.

She has worked as an optician\, frame consultant\, billing specialist at corporate and privately owned optical locations and was an office manager at a multi-doctor optometric practice. Since 2016\, Shana has worked as a regional territory manager for MODO. \nJenny Wiley\, PECAA Cold Start Member Business Advisor\nPrior to joining the PECAA Team in 2015\, Jenny was leading multiple offices of a 10-location ophthalmology and optometry practice and has more than 30 years’ experience in the eye care industry. She currently acts as PECAA’s Membership Manager and is also in charge of PECAA’s Cold Start Practice Program\, helping members in the process of opening cold with customized resources and educational materials.

In her free time\, Jenny enjoys college sports (Go Terps!)\, hiking in the Gorge with her dog\, good beer\, great bourbon and hanging out with her children. \nKristy Stone\, PECAA Education Director\nKristy started her career in the optical Industry in 2006 as a technician and worked her way up to area manager within the large private practice group.  She gave a medical courier company and a revenue cycle management company a try but felt very strongly about returning to her optometry roots.  Kristy now assists PECAA members with all their education needs. Outside of planning and organizing member webinars and CE events\, you can find Kristy playing board games with her husband Chip\, traveling\, attending concerts\, or snuggling with their fur baby\, Andre. \n
