Eric joined Lokalise in 2022 after managing projects for a language service provider. His journey into language tech started back in Boulder, Colorado, where he studied Linguistics at CU Boulder and graduated in 2015. After college and a three-year adventure with the Peace Corps, he added a Spanish-to-English translation certificate from UCSD Extension in 2020 (staying productive during "The Global Science Experiment That Went Viral"). In 2024, he earned his master’s degree in Translation and Localization Project Management from the Middlebury Institute of International Studies.
As Eric dug deeper into the translation industry, he realized that language technology is where his skills and passions align best. Now at Lokalise, he’s thrilled to help prospective and current users evaluate, adopt, and optimize their use of Lokalise’s capabilities. Since joining, he’s expanded his focus to computer science, specializing in custom integrations and workflows that help users automate and streamline their work. His mantra? Automate, automate, automate!
Eric shares his insights and side projects on his Substack blog, where he dives into topics like using LLMs to enhance machine translation output. In his favorite project so far, he used Lokalise, OpenAI, DeepL, and a quality estimation engine from Hugging Face to explore how automated source-language editing can boost translation quality. He breaks down the process and results in a video for those curious to learn more.
Outside work, you’ll find Eric enjoying the outdoors, music, and sports. He keeps active but admits to a bit of a gaming habit on the side.
Selecting the right Translation Management System (TMS) can be a little overwhelming given the large number of options available. To help simplify this process, we've put together an easy-to-use, 5-step TMS evaluation template that helps teams make informed decisions about translation and localization.
