Intrigued by being part of a profession that has played such an integral role in the founding and growth of our city, state and country, the law seemed a natural choice for Eric. Great part of his job: working with a group of genuine friends. Greatest part of his job: daily interaction with exceptional clients, fellow attorneys and community leaders alike.

In his time away from the office, Eric enjoys cycling, skiing and racing in the Sports Car Club of America. Eric also served for almost 10 years as President of the Board for local charity, Kids ‘n Kamp. But Eric’s favorite activity is spending quality time his wife Colleen and their two sons — exploring National Parks in an RV while the boys were younger, and more recently, traveling to Europe to explore England, France and Italy and finding great destinations in the Western US and Canada to mountain bike.
