Erik Pettersen
Senior Manager, Web & CRM
As Senior Manager of Web & CRM, I'm at the center of where data, analytics, and user engagement collide.
I'm very passionate about technology and its role in improving peoples' lives. I've spent the majority of my career working with a myriad of web-based technologies in different capacities to support and advance nonprofits’ missions. I previously worked as a Systems Architect for the United Way of Connecticut and as a Technology Coordinator for the Connecticut Policy & Economic Council. I have a BS in Communications from Eastern Connecticut State University.
I have a weak spot for spicy food, bad puns/word play, internet memes, and ellipsis...As a recent transplant, I’m thoroughly enjoying exploring the greater San Francisco Bay area and all it has to offer!
I grew up wanting to be:
A Jedi or a scientist. Or a Jedi-scientist.
The most satisfying thing about my work is:
Problem solving. I get to fix things that aren't working or take sub-optimal things and make them more efficient.
When I need to relax, I:
Crack open a craft beer and answer a Q & A. Current favorite Belgo IPA from New Belgium Brewery. Think they'll send me a complementary case as a thank you for this plug?
