LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#CHRO–Slickdeals, the only shopping platform powered by millions of avid shoppers, today announced that it has hired its first female member of the C-suite.

“We are excited to welcome Erin to our team. She has the perfect mix of experience to help support our goal of helping savvy shoppers win at shopping, and we are confident that she will be a great asset to Slickdeals,” said Josh Meyers, CEO, Slickdeals.

Gehan, based in Los Angeles, CA, will oversee marketing, business development, and sales at Slickdeals.
