Growing up in Aiken, South Carolina, Erwin was afforded a unique opportunity to be exposed to a diverse culture and environment at a very early age. As the son of hardworking parents who was living in the midst of the Civil Rights movement in the Deep South, they raised their children with character and optimism and instilled in them the belief that you could accomplish anything that you strived to do, whether that was in furthering your education, participating in athletics, giving through community service or pursuing a career. Erwin explored many college opportunities and eventually chose Davidson College because of its deep commitment to a strict honor code and the value they placed on individual development related to becoming a "servant leader." Erwin received his Bachelor of Science in Economics and joined the banking industry during a dynamic period where consolidation was underway, and specific specialties were being created. During his years in the banking and financial services industry, Erwin held various leadership positions within international trade finance, corporate banking, private banking, and treasury management. His exposure to global cultures offered many opportunities to leverage diversity positively and work on solutions that brought the power of diversity to achieve increased success levels. Erwin took his belief in diversity and sought to develop a company that reflected the power that diversity could bring to an enterprise and leverage that power by providing an environment that could have a positive impact on all the individuals within that company. Erwin serves as a member of the Board of Directors of Newbold Services in Greenville, SC, and the Greenville Chamber of Commerce.
