His unique comedic style, infused with his Italian-American heritage, spins raw, relatable narratives that resonate with the everyday American.

From his early beginnings on YouTube, Eric has steadily crafted a diverse portfolio of work that includes engaging sketches, spot-on celebrity impressions, and comedic covers of popular songs.

His social media progress extends beyond viral videos, with a loyal fanbase that follows his every move.

Notable venues include The Borgata in Atlantic City, NJ, New Jersey’s Count Basie Theatre, NYCs Town Hall, the 1,900-seat St. George Theater in Staten Island, NY, and The Paramount in Huntington, NY.

Looking forward, Eric shows no signs of slowing down.
