Eric began working for The Marathon Companies 2018. He received associate degrees in both general studies and social science from Erie County Community College and then a bachelor’s degree in Emergency Management/Fire Science from SUNY Empire State College. He started in the warehouse where he gained expertise in product knowledge, assembly, packaging and shipping. His time spent in the warehouse has helped him succeed in his current sales position, providing unique insight to his customers.
On any given day, Eric can be found taking or making calls, speaking with international distributors and customers, inputting orders all while providing top-tier customer service. Eric is a tremendous problem solver who continues to grow and learn every day. Outside of work, Eric is a firefighter for the East Seneca Fire Company near Buffalo, NY. He also considers himself an outdoors enthusiast that enjoys fishing, hunting, hiking and camping with friends.
Just want to thank you for your generous support and coming out to hit that golf ball. Without people like Marathon this tournament and the money raised could not be possible. Thank you for coming all the way from Buffalo. Hopefully this will be a tradition for you.
