Cathryn Easterling named Erie office director at Bridgeway Capital

 

The New Pittsburgh Courier has learned that Cathryn Easterling has been selected as the director of Bridgeway Capital’s office in Erie.

Easterling brings a wealth of experience from the financial and healthcare industries and has over 10 years of community development and financial services experience. Within her previous role as community development coordinator with Aetna, Easterling maintained a territory of 19 counties within Northwest Pa.

Easterling will lead Bridgeway’s efforts in Erie to provide responsive capital that ignites economic growth and fosters community revitalization. Since opening its Erie office in 2012, Bridgeway has invested $25.5 million in people and places in Northwestern Pennsylvania that cannot access mainstream sources of finance.

“Being a lifelong resident and child of a minority entrepreneur has provided me a unique viewpoint and a deep understanding of the small business needs within Erie, Pa. I am thrilled to join the Bridgeway team,” said Easterling, in a statement. “I am eager to lead Bridgeway’s efforts, providing inclusive economic growth opportunities with the Erie community.”

Easterling is working to connect Erie area entrepreneurs with capital to launch, grow, or sustain business during the COVID-19 crisis.
