Eric grew up near the beach in NJ and bounced between several different professions.  Eventually he found his way to NEPA and as a stop-gap, took a job at SES working in I.T.  Over the years, what was supposed to be a temporary job turned into a career as Eric grew to love the job.  I'd call it a Satellite Farm, but SES is best described as a "Teleport" where huge amounts of media and data are handled and streamed via satellite all across the country and the planet.  Recently Eric started volunteering with a fire department near Hawley, PA.  It also turns out that Eric has some roots near New Orleans, and we discuss delicious cajun foods and stumble across a possible new fusion cuisine.
