About Eric M

Eric uncomfortably admits that until about 20 years ago, he was a political "free rider", always thinking that others would do the heavy lifting to keep America on course.

Now working with Richmond Tea Party to advance conservative principles, Eric serves on the Board of Directors and as a resource for "all things technology".
