About Eric

I've worked mostly in graphic design, for small companies. I've had to wear many hats - designer, writer, photographer and shoot and edit some basic videos. I earned my student pilot's licenses in both gliders and powered aircraft. I've volunteered several years as an adaptive sports instructor - sailing, cycling, and skiing. I trained as a helmsman with the US Paralympic Team. I'm currently enrolled in the Digital Media program at Truckee Meadows Community College, gradually working up through the curriculum towards film and video production classes, to better inform my writing. My screenwriting focus is aviation.
