My Background

Erika Ettin is the 'new voice' of online dating. Ettin is the founder of A Little Nudge, where she helps others navigate the often intimidating world of online dating. Learn more about Erika below. <strong>Most people describe you as</strong>: The happiest person they know. I'm smiling about 99.872% of the time. <strong>People would be surprised to know that: </strong>For a petite person (all 100 pounds of me), I have a huge singing voice. I once sang the National Anthem for a Washington Nationals game. <br/> <strong>What is your drink of choice? </strong>Believe it or not, a good single-malt Scotch. Neat. <strong>Where is your happy place? </strong>In the public eye. I love my job because I get to help people and share all I know about online dating with others, through articles, news clips, and presentations. <strong>What is your biggest regret? </strong>I try not to have regrets. <strong>If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? </strong>I might try to lessen the accent I have on the words "and" and "because." You'll always know I'm from the Philly area! <strong>What do you consider your greatest achievement?</strong> Starting my own business from scratch. <strong>Which trait do you most value in another person? </strong>Reliability… and the use of proper grammar! <strong>If you could interview anyone, past or present, who would it be?</strong> Idina Menzel – She's my singing idol. <strong>Favorite Movie? </strong> Sleepless in Seattle. <strong>What TV show is currently your DVR/On Demand obsession?</strong> Glee, Millionaire Matchmaker, Friday Night Lights, Homeland. <strong>What is your guilty pleasure?</strong> Reading US Weekly. <strong>The worst thing anyone said or did to you is:</strong> Can't think of anything for this one right now. <strong>I believe in: </strong>Being who you are and not caring what others think of you. Let's just say that I don't get embarrassed easily. I love talking to strangers, making friends in surprising places, and embracing my uninhibited nature. <strong>What is your motto or inspiration? </strong>Things turn out the best for the people who make the best of the way things turn out. <strong>If you could go back in time where would you go? </strong>I would go back to the 80s and tell myself that legwarmers and hot pink scrunchies would never quite make the come-back I was hoping they would.
