Welcome! I'm Eric – a Dallas-based graphic designer with 10+ years of creative production experience. Let's get to know each other!

About

Born and raised in Southeast Louisiana, I grew up aspiring to be an artist. Or an astronaut. Or maybe some combination of both. So I spent my free time drawing and getting my hands dirty and one epic summer at space camp.

It turns out rocket science is, well, rocket science. Art remained a hobby until I began my studies at Louisiana State University and enrolled in the School of Art. There I was inspired and completely fell in love with design and the craft that it requires.

I currently spend my weekdays pushing pixels as the Senior Graphic Designer at Service First Mortgage, and my free time exploring the vastness of North Texas. You can follow my adventures on my blog.
