About Eric
Where Artistry Meets the Craft of Real Estate
The Story
I am an Akron boy through and through. Raised in the Ellet and Kenmore neighborhoods, I have spent my entire life soaking in the culture, communities, and unique charm of Northeast Ohio. ​After 11 years of proudly calling the New Franklin​/ Portage Lakes area home, I once again find myself a resident of Akron.​ No matter where life takes me, one constant is that I've dedicated my career to helping my neighbors navigate their most important financial milestones.
With over ​20 years of experience in the real estate industry, I have established myself as a trusted advisor, a team leader, and a Top 3% Realtor in the state of Ohio. But to me, real estate has never been just about closing transactions or reading market spreadsheets. It is about storytelling, advocacy, and translating your home’s value into a masterpiece that buyers cannot ignore.
The Creative Edge: Redefining the Listing
Long before I was a real estate agent, I was an artist. As a​n artist and a passionate lover of the visual arts, creative writing, and music, I view every property through a unique, creative lens.
When you list your home with me, you aren't just getting bulleted features on the MLS. You are getting an information-rich, visually beautiful, and narratively compelling profile designed to captivate. My distinct storytelling style paints a verbal and visual picture that creates immediate excitement and a true sense of urgency among prospective buyers. This philosophy has driven my listings to go viral, securing feature stories on Realtor.com​, as well as in Bloomberg, USA Today, the Akron Beacon Journal,​ and every publication in between, and more importantly, has netted my sellers the highest possible return in the shortest amount of time, over and over again.
Comprehensive Industry Expertise
Real estate can be stressful, emotional, and complex. My goal is to transfer that burden off ​of your shoulders by providing a practical, down-to-earth, and completely transparent partnership. Whether you are looking to secure top-tier market value or navigating a complex financial transition, I bring specialized, certified knowledge to the table:
Financing & Negotiation Expert: Highly trained in FHA financing guidelines and complex negotiation strategies.
Military & Corporate Relocation​ Expert: Proud VA military specialist helping active duty, veterans, and corporate families transition smoothly into the ​N​ortheast Ohio region.
Smart Home Technology​: Certified Smart Home Agent leveraging advanced marketing and tech systems to highlight modern home advantages.
Distressed Property Insight: Grounded in extensive early experience managing bank-ordered valuations (BPOs) and navigating pre-foreclosures.
Rooted in the Community
For me, serving a community means actively building it. I am deeply invested in local civic and cultural progress, previously serving as the Board Chairman of​ Better Kenmore CDC (formerly the Kenmore Neighborhood Alliance CDC​)​ and​ additionally on New Franklin's Board of Zoning Appeals, and on the local MLS Advisory Board,​ as well as spending countless hours volunteering in local schools and communities.
When you work with me, you are getting more than a realtor—you are getting a lifelong neighbor, a fierce negotiator, and a dedicated advocate who will treat you like a friend.
