“His insightful coaching always elevates my performance.”
Eric knows his shit. He's a master of text analysis and his insightful coaching always elevates my performance. Eric helps me discover specific choices that are both true to my voice and the words on the page. I leave our sessions feeling confident and ready to be the best version of myself. You're an idiot if you don't work with him.
“When I coach with Eric, I book.”
Eric was a total game changer for me. I think my reps love him almost as much as I do, because when I coach with Eric, I book. His text analysis, taste, and direction are some of the best I’ve seen, but what I appreciate the most about working with Eric is that his coaching style never overshadows the actor. He approaches the work like an invisible mechanic, and that is what makes him a magician.
Born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, Eric studied at The American Academy of Dramatic Arts and the British American Drama Academy. After graduating, he began landing television and film roles in both comedy and drama.
Breaking out on Malcolm in the Middle, Eric has built a career working across genres, from Shakespeare to improvisation, with credits including Generation Kill, Wet Hot American Summer, True Story, and The Politician.
“Be the best at what you do well and celebrate the people you are doing it with.”
As a teacher and coach, Eric is known for translating real working experience into practical, specific guidance for actors at every level.
