What are people saying about Eric?

Below is a curated list of what folks have written about me over the last decade or so. Some of these excerpts come from LinkedIn recommendations, posts, and DMs. Others came from letters of recommendation from professors and lots from student evaluations (from the universities and RateMyProfessor).

Why am I doing this? I want to show people what it's like to work with me. More than that though, these words make me happy. They inspire me. They make me feel good about myself. I hope you use this an example. I hope you seek out words of affirmation in your life. [Where you see brackets, I edited for sentence structure.]
