Memphis Medical Society is happy to announce Erin Pounders has joined our team, as our new Executive Administrative Assistant. We can’t wait to see what new ideas and support Erin will bring to our organization. Here’s a little about her:
Name: Erin Pounders
Hometown: Lenoir City, TN (right outside of Knoxville – Go Vols); moved to Memphis from New Orleans (my second hometown)
Family and pets: Brad (husband), Henry (son; senior at CBHS), and Cookie (labradoodle/my household ally)
Life outside of work: I read lots of fiction: literary fiction and short stories. I love indie film and indie music. Travel is also extremely important to me.
Professional Experience: I have taught high school and college English and worked in law firms as a paralegal.
What are you most excited about in this role? I want to make things run easier for our team and board. I am also interested in the advocacy work on behalf of patients that our dedicated doctors conduct with law makers.
What new or improved aspects do you hope to bring to your program? I have become a part of a true team, and I am inheriting a stellar system to meet goals. At this point in my tenure here, I hope that the systems I develop for myself keep me anticipating the needs of the team making us one step ahead.
What is something you want everyone to know about you? I love to laugh.
What is an unusual fact about yourself? I am left-handed and have never had a cavity.
