Hi, I’m Eric — I’m a filmmaker based in New York City.

As a director, I utilize my backgrounds as both a journalist and art director to create work that’s rich in narrative storytelling and bold in colorful visuals. I like to approach each project with a playful curiosity and eye for quirky details, combining humor, heart, and –– hopefully –– a touch of weirdness.

My latest narrative short film, “The Clogging,” a dark comedy about a man who clogs the only toilet at a house party, screened at the 2024 Academy Award-qualifying Indy Shorts International Film Festival.
