The EIM Account Team Expands with Erin and Kara

Erin and Kara came here to be part of the account team and chew bubble gum, and they’re all out of bubble gum. (So they’re still part of the account team, which is good). Their humor, hard work, and mad potluck skills have made them very welcome additions.
