Erica Barry is an entertainment industry professional, author, and digital content creator.

She studied economics and media studies at Pomona College, where she discovered her passion for media, entrepreneurship, and representation. She is fascinated with discovering new ways to bring important stories forward that would not otherwise be told.

When she’s not taking the creative world by storm, she’s celebrating the work of her fellow creators. When she realized that more mainstream creators were getting their starts on platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok, she went looking for a guidebook, only to find that there wasn’t one. Therefore, she set out to write her debut book, Don’t Wait, Create: How to Be A Content Creator in the New Digital Revolution.

When Erica isn’t creating, you can find her hiking Runyon Canyon, experimenting with new recipes, and catching up on the latest TikTok trends.
