Eric has always been a champion for the written word.
He wrote short stories as early as third grade, and developed his skills throughout his education. After graduating from Valley Christian High School in the Bay Area in 2007, he attended the University of California, Santa Cruz. In 2011, he graduated with a Bachelor’s in Film and Digital Media and a concentration in Production and Screenwriting.
Then, in the shadow of the Great Recession, he found work editing videos at a modest educational startup then called Remilon, now known as Study.com. As the business’s needs grew and branched out, he pivoted to Content Strategy and Copywriting, building out a toolkit as an all-around content creator, producer, and editor.
From there, he picked up professional writing and editing skills in a variety of roles, always centered around content, marketing, and thought leadership:
- Creating Brand Voice and Tone Guides
- Managing Blog/Email Content Calendars and Messaging Plans
- Editing and Narrating Product Explainer Videos
- Drafting and Editing Marketing/Website Copy
- Ghostwriting Executive Posts and Presentations
- Drafting and Publishing One-Pagers, White Papers, and Case Studies
In addition to professional writing, he regularly creates and publishes personal projects like short stories, novels, tabletop role-playing games, and social media videos in fandom spaces.
