“Building rapport with clients comes first,” Eric says. “I like to go out for co ee or lunch and get to know them before getting into insurance conversations. Then I ask about their needs and explain coverage and what they are paying for in the policy. I also love partnering with REALTORS® and mortgage brokers and being a resource for them. Education is a big part of what I do. For example, many homeowners should have buried utility lines and service line coverage or water backup and sumppump coverage. Still, most people don’t know what that is until they need it and discover it was overlooked in their policy. I want to be remembered as the guy who always got it right.”

Eric understands how insurance coverage may need to change to keep up with a person’s life.

“I married my beautiful wife, Morgan, in March, and we are expecting our first baby this fall,” he smiles. “So I am in the process of buying a life insurance policy myself. Morgan and I are busy getting our home ready for the baby, but we like to go down to the shore on the weekends to relax and have fun. I also enjoy golfing, fishing, hunting, and walking our three-year-old German Shepherd, Rambo, four or five times a day. He comes to work with me and is a big part of my life.”

Professional, knowledgeable, kind, and e cient are just a few of the words Eric’s clients use to describe him in their many five-star reviews. “I enjoy working with people from di erent backgrounds and all walks of life,” he says. “Part of that comes from playing baseball, where the lineup was constantly changing with players from all over the world. As a result, I respect everyone, can talk to anyone, and understand challenging situations need extra care. My favorite thing to do is find a remedy so everything works out, and clients are happy to save a bunch of money when they think they won’t save a dime. Goosehead Insurance always hits it out of the park!”
