As a certified Professional in Human Resources (PHR) through HRCI, Eric brings deep expertise in HR compliance, employee relations, talent development, and organizational leadership.

Throughout his career, Eric has led transformative initiatives that align HR operations with business goals.

This initiative not only optimized operations but also empowered HR teams with faster access to critical data and reporting tools.

Eric is also a champion for progressive people strategies. He implemented the Discipline Without Punishment methodology—an evidence-based approach that fosters accountability while preserving dignity and trust. This strategy has proven instrumental in turning around underperforming employees and cultivating a more respectful, results-driven culture.

This program has played a critical role in enhancing workplace safety and reinforcing a culture of shared responsibility.
