My name is Eric and I’m a professional problem solver. I perform IT work for a growing community bank and my goal is to make my co-workers jobs easier, removing the barriers they encounter in their day to day work.

I started playing with computers as a young child, typing in programs from the back of magazines to see how they work. Then I started to investigate how to use a database to management my growing comic book collection. I quickly outgrew the database capabilities of my Commodore 64 and moved onto an IBM Compatible with an Intel 386sx chip with a 40 megabyte hard drive that the dealer said we’d never be able to fill. Oh how things have changed.

I manage my employers information technology resources and have overseen the banks expansion to now include multiple locations linked together so the network works seamlessly for everyone involved.

After work in the summer you can find me at the lake. I’ve been a member of the Mad-City Ski Team since 1998 and have been a part of 6 national championship teams (2004, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2019) and numerous Wisconsin State Championships. I’m also a 2 time member of the USA Water Ski Show Team and have won world championships in 2016 (Wisconsin Rapids, WI) and 2018 (Huntsville, Canada) as part of Team USA. The rest of the year it’s lots of Badger sports (football, basketball and hockey) and the Packers Football.
