## Caption

Eric graduated from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Minor in Music. He is from Barrington, IL, and was a member of the Illini Drumline where he played snare for three years.

Eric is now working at Ravinia Music Festival where he will continue expanding his experience in the live music and entertainment industry. Additionally, keep a lookout for his “Seeking Polaris” musical artist and DJ alias as it enters a new chapter.

Some advice from Eric is to never forget the impact you can have on someone you may never meet. As someone who wasn’t in MI his freshman year, looking up to the Illini Drumline played an immense role in fueling the inspiration to keep working and practicing. You don’t know just how many people you may be inspiring, and this applies not just for time in MI but also for all of life beyond.

Great words of advice and congratulations, Eric! We are so proud of you!
