Teacher
Currently Eric is on a three year teaching tour with Ellen Cheever and Kitchen and Bath Design News teaching a program that he co-developed with Ellen.
The KBDN Art + Science seminar identifies “what’s next” in design and technology so that you can address the needs of a younger, less-traditional client while increasing your profits in the New Digital Age. In addition to the class presentations by Ellen and Eric, you can meet leading product manufacturers who sponsor this event for their customers. You also receive an elegant, 120-page workbook that includes all the details of the material presented.
If you would like to attend one of these seminars you can do so here.
Eric also teaches SketchUp to students all around the world. He has taught architects, kitchen designers, interior designers and more. In addition to that he has been hired to teach SketchUp in digital fabrication including 3D printing and CNC fabrication.
