Erik is a strategist, journalist, and writer with 20 years of experience at global media companies.  After a successful career in newspapers and magazines, he jumped the fence in the early days of branded content, building in-house brand studios at JWT, The New York Times, and CNN. He is a utility player who handles everything from pitching award-winning concepts to creating publishing workflows and creative systems from scratch. But he’ll also get in the weeds with a story or copy deck, never forgetting what he learned as a junior reporter and copy editor about getting the story right and ensuring quality.
