My Family
My son, Scotty, is the joy of my life! He is (almost) always smiling and loves people, trains, Elmo and pizza!
I am incredibly proud of my husband, Charlie, a Resident at Northwestern Emergency Department and the recipient of numerous awards including the "Gold Humanism Award" for doctors who treat each patient with dignity & respect, especially the underserved.

My extraordinary parents Joe Erker (Actor, Glass Etcher and Film Maker) and Colleen Erker (Retired Assistant Dean of Washington University in St. Louis School of Law)
My little sister, Dr. Julia Erker Kesarwani, is my best friend and biggest hero. She is a Mental Health Occupational Therapist for children ages 0-5. She married an incredibly sweet goofball, Dr. Rohit Kesarwani, who is a Neurosurgeon Resident in Edmonton, Canada.
I am very fortunate to have grown up very close to my 45 first cousins and 20 aunts & uncles in St. Louis, MO!
My Homes
I was born and raised in St. Louis, MO and happy to be settling down here (hopefully!) for the rest of my life. Go cards!
I lived in Guadalajara, Mexico, for two years after graduating from college. My grandmother is 100% Mexican, so that makes me one-fourth Mexican!
I lived in Chicago, IL from 2007-2009, during which I received my Masters in Education. After returning to St. Louis for 5 years, I went back in Chicago from 2014-2017 for my husband's Residency at Northwestern Emergency Department.
My Schools
Our Lady of Lourdes Elementary School
St. Joseph's Academy High School
Washington University in St. Louis
University of Illinois at Chicago (Masters in Elementary Education)
International Teacher Training Organization (TEFL Certification in Guadalajara)
I am currently working on applications for a PhD.
