ABOUT
Eric was born and raised in Baltimore, MD. But has been slowly moving west of the Mississippi since the age of 16. He now lives in Portland, Oregon with his family and works "locally" from Seattle to Los Angeles.
Stories connect us.
After traveling to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival he lived in Scotland and Ireland seeking out all forms of storytellers while performing himself in schools and on the street. He was accepted to Dell Arte International Theatre School and trained in their Professional Actors Training Program. He then studied at theActor’s Avenue Studio with Master coach-Meisner disciple Laurel Vouvray. When not on set Eric can be found running around with his dogs, daughters, awesome wife, or all of them together.
In the last year, three films were released that Eric was proud to be a part of: He had a starring role in Patrick D. Greene’s Beau Ideal. He drank beer and yelled at Bruce Campbell in Ernie and Emma, and put on big boy clothes and took it easy on Brett Dier and Alyssa Lampris in the film In Spite of Ourselves. He also wrote, produced, and directed the play "One Thousand Times " under the advanced workshop banner in the Fertile Ground Festival.
Stories remind us we are not alone
Eric likes to get all serious about art sometimes. Here's what else he says:
“Stories give us permission to live our messy human lives. They offer profound moments to experience our collective humanity.
Through story we can laugh, then break and find strength to rebuild and find we are all in this together.”
