About Eric Goldberg

Before I learned how money moves, I learned how people do.I started my career in hospitality, working in fine dining and restaurant management while training toward a sommelier certification. Those years taught me the art of service, the pace of real-world operations, and how small details shape customer experience. They also sparked a lasting curiosity about what happens behind every transaction — the technology, processes, and trust that keep businesses running.That curiosity led me into restaurant franchising, where I helped scale a fast-growing brand across the U.S. and internationally — an experience that even landed us on Undercover Boss! Wanting to go deeper into how businesses operate, I transitioned into POS and payments technology, supporting restaurant platforms before expanding into retail and petroleum environments. There, I held leadership roles helping businesses modernize how they accept payments, streamline operations, and scale growth.I later joined PwC’s U.S. Payments Practice, advising merchants, fintechs, and financial institutions on payments strategy and transformation initiatives across the money-movement ecosystem.Today, I serve as a trusted advisor to Wells Fargo’s Commercial Banking clients, helping organizations optimize electronic receivables, align payment acceptance with operational workflows, and navigate the intersection of finance, technology, and customer experience.
