A Note from Trudi
Working with Eric is genuinely wonderful. He is brilliant, compassionate, and completely committed to every client we serve. He also tells dad jokes. Constantly. With the full confidence of a man who believes each one is the funniest thing said in that room, that day, possibly that year. I have been the primary audience for these jokes for longer than I care to calculate. I want you to know that I take my role in this very seriously, and that my polite chuckle has been precision-engineered over many years of service. You are welcome. 😄
