Growing up, people often described my view of the world as a bit unconventional.

I noticed connections others missed, found creativity in unexpected places, and took alternative paths to solve problems.

My dad put it best: “The weird works for you, Eric.”

Over time, I’ve realized just how true this is.

Embracing my unique approach means leaning fully into what sets me apart.

I’ve built a life and career around innovation, creativity, and a real curiosity about what lies beyond conventional boundaries.

Whether it’s blending art and tech in my Web3 projects, transforming abstract ideas into digital experiences, or exploring human psychology and creativity, my “weird” has become a powerful asset.

It’s a constant reminder to trust my instincts, even if the road ahead is less traveled.

To me, “weird” now stands for something deeply empowering: the freedom to think differently, to act boldly, and to create in ways that feel authentic.

For anyone who feels a little out of sync with the usual way of doing things, I’d say: embrace it.

Often, that very thing that makes us different is what makes all the difference.
