About Eric »

I am a passionate sports enthusiast and journalist. I am engaged in sports every day of my life.

My favorite sports are MLB, NBA, and college basketball. My favorite team is the Seattle Mariners.

I am also a big fantasy sports fan. I follow my baseball and basketball fantasy teams almost Religiously.

I was born in Philadelphia, PA, and grew up in Montclair, NJ. I have called northern California home for the past five seasons.

I am a recent graduate of Sonoma State University in northern California where I received a degree in Communications. At SSU, I wrote for the sports section of the campus newspaper where I received the Best Sports Writer Award.

I am currently a part-time writer for the Community Voice newspaper in Rohnert Park, CA. I cover sports for the local high school, middle schools, and state university there. I also interview prominent sports figures from the community.

Hey Eric,

Yao Ming has done so much for the game of basketball, that I felt compelled to write a tribute. I'd love for you to take a look and let me know what you think! Again, I hope my passion comes through and it's a good read.
