Erin began her career with West African drumming and dancing in 2006 when she was invited to become part of the percussion for a live music dance class. She soon soon fell in love with the dancing and began practicing dance as well. In 2008 she travelled to Guinea on an educational trip to study West African dancing and drumming and had the opportunity to visit the village of Kubian to see the site of the new school and meet the community there. After a few years away from the Matoto scene, Erin is grateful to be back and looks forward to supporting Matoto and all the joy it brings to her and others.
