About Me

Hi!

My name is Eric and I'm from St. Louis, Missouri. I came to Korea to teach 1999, fell in love with the place and have been here off and on since.

I did go home for a year and a half and instructed at North Carolina Outward Bound School for a season. Despite teaching exactly what I liked doing (rock climbing, hiking, canoeing, etc...) I wasn't able to do that stuff as much as I'd liked, so back to Korea.

Now I live in Montreal where my wife is here going to school and I'm doing freelance web work.

Teaching & Education

Education Background

I took the long way through school.

I started out in Geology but soon realized that calculus and chemistry were not for me.

So halfway thru my college career, I started over.

I went into marketing management and got my bachelors in that. After graduating, I realized that I did not want to be in marketing or management.
