Meet Eric. Co-founder. Fearless project leader. Enigma wrapped in a mystery.

Eric’s skills defy description. Mostly, because what he calls skills are pretty much just quirky things that he does. Repeatedly. Singing along with the office music is not a skill; especially not with his voice. Picking up on the latest catch phrase and using it until we all want to run screaming from the office is NOT a skill. (“Talk to the hand!”) And, the way he suddenly has a British accent after every new Harry Potter movie comes out? Uh, nope.

Designing and programming websites: not skills! Oh, wait. OK, those are skills. Pretty amazing and important skills, actually. But wailing random Counting Crows songs throughout the day? So not skills.

We try not to get too worked up when Eric wanders the office with his cordless headset while chatting on conference calls. Seriously, he probably walks 5 miles a day on calls (and has worn a pretty good path in the carpet at this point). Eric does seem to keep the clients really, really happy, though—and they seem to like him—so we humor him...

     
Once in a generation is the world lucky enough to witness the rise of an intellect of this magnitude. Never before have I experienced the talent, intellect, charisma, and unabashed physical presence that is contained within this one person. It is my sincere hope that the world very quickly realizes the genius and pure talent within this amazing man. He has the singing voice of an angel. The compassion of the Buddha. The patience of a saint. Eric is beyond anything else this world has to offer. All that come in contact with him are forever changed...
