Eric Gulino

Summary

"Eric is a unicorn. A perfect blend of personality, intelligence and drive. He is able to lead teams that deliver premium digital and social experiences backed by data-driven insights”
Andrea Pederson, Digital Business Partner, Virgin Atlantic

"Eric is impressive. So much so that I remember the exact meeting when he and I first met. We were working on brand realignment for Mazda, our particular meeting was to discuss social strategy during a phase when both client and agency were crossing over to new DMP’s, exploring new mechanics and new ways of working. Tons of pressure, many unknowns, masses of questions being lobbed into the discussion, and my learning curve in this was a very steep trajectory. As a result I threw in a number of ridiculous recommendations, and asked asked a bunch of stupid questions. (And too few good ones). Yet Eric treated each with astuteness, tact, respect and professionalism. And through this response he displayed his own thought-leadership, his mastery of digital, and his excellent communication skills. In this and subsequent meetings he helped to bring to life suggestions and prompts of mine that would not have recognized as having value, by a lesser partner. While I didn’t manage Eric, we collaborated on many projects. He is smart, steadfast, with an easy temperament, and I really enjoyed working with him. Eric commands respect (and additionally, from my experience, gratitude) from his co-workers. I would work with him again in a heartbeat, and would want him by my side in the trenches."
Erich Funke, Executive Creative Director, WPP Agency

"Working with Eric was always a pleasure. He definitely had a way of working with clients and the production team to make things as seamless as possible. He also understood the constraints of what he was asking for which showed that he was invested in the projects at every turn. He could have just come in, asked for suggestions on things and then regurgitated that information but he never did that. This is something I always appreciated in working with him as I could tell he was a team player through and through."
Chrissy Winchak, Program Manager, iCrossing

“I was always impressed by Eric's ability to handle even the toughest clients—and with ease. That skill often takes years to develop in the agency world, but it seemed to come as second nature to him.”
Aaron Zide, Sr. Art Director, Kareo
