Eric’s passion and commitment toward helping others achieve and maintain peak performance was fueled, in part, by the severe panic attacks he experienced as an adolescent. Through formal and self-education, Eric overcame this paralyzing disorder.

For over two decades he has studied, observed and shared the human behavior  needed to build and maintain boundless self-confidence, a healthy self-esteem and the self -discipline needed to create extraordinary results.

In January of 2004, Eric was a champion in the EAS / Body for Life International Fitness Challenge. 

On September 29, 2004, Eric created and produced Empower New Jersey 2004 featuring the late Christopher Reeve. It was the last public seminar Christopher gave in NJ, he died 10 days later.
