Optimist. Futurist. Whippersnapper. 

My name is Eric Gaffin, a Hoosier native and a graduate from the Herron School of Art and Design. I'm married to an amazing middle school art teacher with whom I share three raucous fur babies (we may or may not be crazy cat people).

I'm a lover of dichotomies, big thoughts, nature, and craft beer. I'm an optimist almost to a fault, but my mother always said "it could be worse" in any situation. I've always been a visual thinker and design gives me an outlet to communicate my ideas and try to make the world a more interesting and thought-provoking place.

Other interesting bits about me:

• Horror movie fanatic

• Obsessed with the band HIM

• Singularitarian (I said I was an optimist, didn't I?)

• Halloween is my favorite holiday

• Beer & Beard Enthusiast

• I sometimes whistle to heavy metal music
