PAC SHOUTOUT

Erica Sorenson is currently training to take over as PAC’s treasurer and Neon Dance Ninja. As treasurer, she will keep us financially organized and on budget, bringing in her years of expertise as VP of sales at McKesson. Helping put together our incredibly popular Neon Dance is no easy feat but we know that Erica can make it happen as she is a seasoned multitasker. With 4 kids spread across Ridges, SMS, & SHS, she is no stranger to juggling many hats and schedules.

When she isn’t working for her career or to help PAC, she enjoys traveling and adventuring with her family and beloved German Shepherd.
