“Eric is a brilliant creative who knows how to communicate complex ideas in visual mediums.

He never fails to relentlessly achieve excellence, and always finds ways to over-deliver in his craft. The best part of working with Eric, however, is the collaboration – he thinks as deeply about the project as you do, and works with you to create the best results.”

“Eric is one of the most gifted creative people I know.

Not only is he a skilled illustrator, writer, and designer, he’s a systems thinker with a teacher’s heart. When engaged in a complex endeavor, he has the ability to step back and see the whole picture, then suggest the next steps based on that visionary insight. I’ve seen his creative work inspire tears, joy, and positive forward momentum in both clients and colleagues.”
