I started my career as a police office at TAMU back in 1980 and attended school while there. While I didn’t get my BS, I did come back many years later to get my Master of Jurisprudence in Risk Management from the Texas A&M Law School, ’19. I’ve always been so proud to be an Aggie and of the values they represent. As the Chief Ethics & Compliance officer for Texas A&M AgriLife, it’s an honor to do all I can to facilitate the work our world-reknowned researchers do for people across the globe. I’m also a Certified Fraud Examiner and a Certified Compliance & Ethics Professional.

Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Life Coach and Speaker, Erin Robison works with women and men to discover who they are designed to be so that they can experience excellence in their personal and professional lives. While at Texas A&M for both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees, Erin was actively involved in Residence Life, OPAS, Orientation Leaders and many other campus organizations. Her greatest takeaways from her time there are the importance of the “other education” and the power of the Aggie Network.

Erin has over twenty five years of experience working with children, families and individuals as they navigate the ups and downs of life as we know it.

Single until late in life, yet always desiring marriage and a family, Erin has a unique perspective on what it means to discover and live a fulfilling life.  Erin coaches and speaks on topics of Personal Design, Communication, Relationships, Personality Styles, Authenticity, Self-Care, Parenting and Spirituality.

A focus of mine has always been the ability to help others and impact lives. I enjoy the opportunity in meeting all kinds of investors and getting the chance to build a partnership with each and every one of them while at the same time helping them create and implement personalized strategies in order to reach their long-term investment goals. Goals that we take the time to identify and discuss: whether it’s planning for retirement, saving for college for children or grandchildren, or just trying to protect the financial future of the ones that we care the most for.

When I’m not helping clients achieve their dreams I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. My husband, Jared, and I enjoy playing with and spoiling our dog and cats, playing games, traveling, hiking, and making as many memories as possible. When I’m not doing that, I am either crafting or baking!
