Eric brings over 19 years of experience in the yacht and maritime industry to his role as Fleet Manager at Burgess Yacht Management. He began his career after earning a Bachelor of Engineering in Marine Mechanical Engineering from SUNY Maritime, along with a USCG Engineering License. He initially sailed as a licensed engineer in the commercial sector before transitioning shoreside as a technical superintendent for several shipping companies.

In 2014, Eric relocated to Florida to start a family and soon entered the yacht management industry. Since then, he has held key roles representing both yachts and owners — first as a technical superintendent at Fraser Yachts, and later as an owner’s representative within a family office.

Outside of work, Eric enjoys spending time with his wife and daughters, boating around the Jupiter sandbar, and fishing with friends.
