About Eric

Producer / Editor @ Spectrum Networks (Lakers, Dodgers, LA News 1)

My greatest passion is telling life-affirming stories that are both entertaining and enlightening. I believe that humanity needs great stories for our continued survival.

The short films that I have written, directed, or produced have screened at multiple festivals and won many awards, including "Best Short."

I write screenplays because it’s my vocation. To me vocation means such a deep connection between the work and the person doing it that there can be no separating the two. Birds fly, cats meow, and I write. My dream is to share inspiring stories with a large audience.

As a film & TV editor, I am an expert with Avid Media Composer and Adobe Premiere. Over the course of my career I have cut a wide variety of content including feature length films and documentaries, movie trailers, packages for sports TV, and reality show sizzle reels.

I am also a nature-loving Eagle Scout and graduate of USC with an MFA in Film & TV Production.
