My name is Erin Thielman. I have been married for over 12 years and have three amazing children. I am an active, practicing Roman Catholic who is passionate about the faith. I have over 20 years of public speaking experience and recently worked as a 7th and 8th grade Religion Teacher at my local catholic school until I found out that my husband and I were expecting our third child who was diagnosed prenatally with Down Syndrome. I now work to evangelize and teach others about the joy and strength that can be found in the Catholic faith.  I am a public speaker, freelance writer and ProLife/Down Syndrome Advocate. I love Jesus, coffee, kettlebells, the Washington Capitals and the Denver Broncos.  You can learn more about me by viewing my Speaker Bio.
