Eric is an invaluable asset to Phunware. His unwavering attention to detail keeps our website functioning and our collateral version-controlled and beautiful. He’s also a beloved teammate, receiving kudos from colleagues in practically every weekly report they submit for being extremely thorough, talented and calm under pressure. He oversaw a painstaking year-long process to relaunch our website and overhaul our visual brand, supported demand gen and product marketing efforts by creating and designing hundreds of images and pieces of collateral and is the technical rock of the marketing team, supporting our many tools and back-end needs.

Eric’s eye for detail, desire to understand goals first and willingness to do whatever it takes to get the job done made Eric a key asset on our team. He’s steady, professional and people know they can count on Eric to deliver and make them look good. When I think of team player at Phunware, Eric is definitely at the top of the list! He worked with a variety of teams creating PPT presentations, videos, collateral, every single page on our website, online advertising banners, branded emails, and internal/external newsletters. I liked that he was always thinking about how we were going to use and possibly repurpose our assets and ensured we’re thinking through to the end result.

Eric is a talented design leader who has a wealth of knowledge and experience in his field. Every piece of work he completes is truly impressive and he attends to every detail. He’s able to navigate complex requests and multiple shifts in direction and still deliver work that satisfies all stakeholders. Eric is also a great mentor and manager. He is thoughtful, patient, warm, and approachable. He consistently provides constructive feedback to designers he manages and goes the extra mile to support them as needed. I found my experiences with Eric to be fun rather than work and I know he’ll bring the same amount of joy to any team he works with!

Behind every great website is a design and web management guru pulling the right strings at the right time to keep the ship afloat. I’ve been lucky enough to work with Eric for two years now, and it’s safe to say he’s that guru and much more. Eric is a skilled designer, web developer, audio/visual producer, collateral creator, and everything in between. His acumen alongside his technical skills enables a workflow that’s hard to match. Eric is a leader by nature, a teammate by heart, and a creative by passion. He’s a consummate professional and a marketing powerhouse that I can’t recommend highly enough.
