About Eric Buckmeyer

I’m a Social Media Manager with an integrated production background.I have the organizational and diplomatic skills of a producer, and the artistic and technical expertise of a creative. I’m organized but artistic. I’m collaborative but self-sufficient. I’m sensitive of brand voice and comfortable being client-facing. I can do it all, but I have the self-awareness that I can always improve. In brief, I’m a balanced person. I have over 10 years experience working for Fortune 500 companies and startups starting my career in public relations, then ad production, and most recently social media. I started my own brand; Eric Explores. A travel and food video series. I write, film, produce and edit. I have a good sense of humor and I am an empathetic person. Yoga and meditation keep me impervious to stressful situations which is critical in a fast-paced environment. I lead a healthy life and bring that into the workplace everyday. I love good food. I cook. I’m adventurous and inquisitive. I like to travel the world, meeting new people and learning about new cultures. I like to write and I enjoy karaoke, especially classic rock. I’m also a huge soccer fan, my favorite team is from Rome, Italy where I studied for a semester in college.Specialties: Social Media, Digital Production, Broadcast Production, Branded Content, Final Cut Pro X, Adobe Creative Suite, Microsoft Project, Apple iWork, Basecamp, Asana, Estimates, SOW (scope of work), Creative Writing, Copywriting, Client-Facing, Organization, Time Management, Project Management.
