In my own words

Eric

I’m a Midwest transplant who spent a decade in the creative industry, first as a video editor then art director.

Learning how to work with a range of personalities on local to global brands gave me a solid understanding of the industry before going off on my own.

I now partner with individuals, companies or agencies looking to build powerfully durable brand identities without the cost or friction that may come with employing a team of people. I’m transparent with my process and enjoy collaborating with all sectors.

The work is important but my time outside of it is just as valuable. Family, friends, travel and outdoor activities get as much attention so you can expect a proper timeline working with me and not the hurried pace you might be familiar with.

If this sounds like a partnership you’d like to join in on, please fill out the form below or email me at eric@thisis5am.com. Hope we can chat soon.
