I was a CF at FIT, and got the privilege of spending a lot of time with Erica. There was this one time we were watching 'Call me by your name' for one of the international movie nights and I remember being so nervous about watching the infamous 'peach scene' with Erica who was our boss! I remember some of the other CFs even prepping her for the scene and everything but when the scene in the movie actually came on, there was no discomfort in the air - Erica was just watching and enjoying just like the rest of us! We even had a movie discussion afterwards where we talked about that very scene and conversation flowed very naturally and comfortably. That was her superpower - she was very approachable and easy to talk to! She was really always there to talk to and offer support to students. I remember how passionate she was about helping international students and putting them first always. I dearly miss Erica, she was a real angel among us.
