Erika Bigelow

Client Experience Manager

W/ since December 2016

Pronouns: She/her

As Search Associate, Erika supports the strategists on the SEO team, creating fresh, original client content and researching and optimizing keywords and categories. In addition, she manages the Wheelhouse Generosity Day Program.

“Helpfulness is something I really appreciate and view as a gateway value. It lays the foundation for trust and reciprocity, which ultimately make people happy. I witness helpfulness daily at Wheelhouse, in our work and our behavior with our clients and in our interaction with each other, which makes Wheelhouse a great place to work.”

Professional Path

Now part of our Client Experience team, Erika first came to Wheelhouse as a Content Specialist after 9 years with Seattle’s Child Magazine, where she contributed regular articles on a variety of topics, weekly and monthly columns for their Going Places section, and hosted a weekly spot about fun family weekend activities on Q13. In her role as Client Experience Manager, she draws on her deep skills in communication, organization and empathy to make sure Wheelhouse both maximizes business value and consistently embodies our values.

Personal Passions

A NW native, she loves to travel, ski, read, and run in between chauffeuring three kids (and the family dog) to more activities than she cares to think about. Oh, and she once won an Irish pub in a contest.
