Erin Griffith

I’m a writer living in Brooklyn. My day job is at PandoDaily, where I report on New York startups and tech news.

Previously I worked at Adweek, reporting on (and occasionally talking about) technology and digital media. Prior to joining Adweek in 2011, I spent four years covering M&A and alternative assets for publications owned by the Financial Times and Reuters.

On the side, I contribute nightlife stories to Time Out New York, music reviews to Bust, travel tales to The Huffington Post, fashion commentary to The Lost Girls, personal essays to Long Shot magazine, musician interviews to Got a Girl Crush zine, and venue guides to Brooklyn Based. I co-host a podcast for the buyout industry called Talking Private Equity.

In another life, I worked as a Senior Reporter for peHUB.com and Associate Editor at Buyouts magazine. I also covered consumer products, retail and apparel for Mergermarket LLC, where my investigative reporting appeared in Mergermarket, dealReporter, Debtwire, Deal Drivers, and Ft.com.

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism, minors in Philosophy and English, and a Women’s Studies certificate from Ohio University.

Also, I play keyboard in a band called Team Genius and have a somewhat dormant travel blog.

I like Twitter, too.
