Eric A

Eric is definitely one-of-a- kind. He has never let his disability hold him back in any way. He has a great job; his own sense of style; a myriad of interests in music, gourmet food and electronic media; and a magnetic personality. Eric has worked at Costco Wholesale for over 11 years and is a well-respected, valuable addition to their team.

In his free time, Eric can be seen walking all over San Rafael (usually in his signature leather jacket and bandana, rocking out in headphones) meeting his friends, hitting the farmer's market, or picking up ingredients to whatever feast he will be cooking that night. What Eric is really known for among his friends is his dancing. He combines break moves with freestyle flourishes and hip-hop. He's also a bit of a flirt and always makes the women of PDS feel extra pretty!

"Eric is my hero," says Lisa Giraldi, Executive Director of PDS. "He represents everything that I hope for from our clients. He's fiercely independent, happy and lives a diverse, stimulating life full of friendship and accomplishment."

PDS Client Eric is one very cool dude!
