Erik was born in Duluth, MN in the 1979 and considers himself blessed to have lived in Minnesota his entire life. After graduating Aitkin High School in 1997 he earned degrees and achieved exceptional credentials from the following institutions: Central Lakes College, Brainerd, MN, St. John's University, Collegeville, MN and from the University of St. Thomas School of Law, Minneapolis, MN in 2004 as a member of its first graduating class.
Erik and his wife, Kristin, relocated to the Aitkin area to rekindle their strong ties to the surrounding communities, pursue their careers, and raise a family. They currently reside in Deerwood Township just outside of Deerwood, MN where Kristin is a specialized RN at a local hospital and Erik has been in private practice since 2004. This allows him to balance his family life and the obligations and demands of his clients. Erik and Kristin have two children, a dog named Waldo, two outside cats: Momma and Yoda, and a friendly rooster named White Cheeks.
In his free time, Erik enjoys being outdoors when the weather is favorable where he loves to partake in most every activity that mother nature allows in Minnesota. Erik has strong ties to the community and has a deep desire for his friends and clients to experience excellence and success every day of their lives.
