ABOUT ERIC
My path to coaching has been varied and diverse. I started my career in the corporate world where I worked in strategy, marketing, and finance at companies such as McKinsey, Intuit, and Taco Bell Corp.
My innate curiosity about human behavior eventually led me to pursue qualitative market research, where I learned to listen deeply, ask the right questions, and transform insights into action. In essence, I became a cultural anthropologist, using my skills of observation and perception to identify broader patterns of behavior.
My coaching is also influenced by my interests and studies in areas such as human development, Buddhist psychology, neuroscience, somatics, mindfulness, and improvisational acting.
I hold a degree in Math and Economics from UCLA and an MBA from Harvard University. I completed my coach training at Newfield Network.
I bring a distinctive perspective to coaching – one that combines an understanding of business and organizational contexts with the deeper, transformative work needed to create real change.
“Eric is incredibly professional yet very relatable. I do well with empathetic but firm coaching styles – people that are willing to challenge me and my thinking, but also hold my emotions with a gentle hand. Eric did just that for me. He helped me work through some personal barriers and provided tools for me to have confidence in my actions moving forward.”

FINDING THE RIGHT COACH
I encourage you to interview several coaches. While a coach’s background and experience are important, choose the one that resonates the most with you. A competent coach for somebody else may not be the right one for you. Schedule a call to assess if there is a match. As with any partnership, mutual fit is essential for success. I welcome the opportunity to explore the possibility of working together.
