Bio
Sara Stone
Eric consistently earns stellar student evaluations in the media law and ethics, news reporting, and/or PR writing courses he teaches as an adjunct in the Journalism, Public Relations and New Media department at Baylor University. I highly recommend him. Sara Stone, Ph.D., former chair of the JPR&NM department at Baylor.

Eric is without question one of the most progressive communications professionals I’ve worked with. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing him in action on the Baylor campus. And I’ve also seen him speak at a PRSA event in Dallas where he shared best practices that have helped Baylor boost its media coverage. I’ve been most impressed by the way Eric embraces technology and how he works proactively with faculty experts to celebrate their research. Eric is a class act. And a pleasure to work with.
