Hey, I'm Eric.

I run Laravel News. I started it in 2012, and the weekly newsletter now reaches 48,000 developers. I also co-run PHP News and handle partnerships for the Mostly Technical podcast.

Most of my work is connecting developer tools companies with the people who use them, through editorial, sponsorships, and a lot of conversations at conferences.

Before going full time on Laravel News, I spent 12 years at HelpSpot doing product, demos, and support.

Off the clock I play a lot of golf and share pictures on Instagram.
