About Erik Roberto Sherman

My first word was car. I rode home from the hospital as a newborn in the back of a 280 SEL\'s cartoonishly red interior. My fondest childhood memories involve brightly-colored motorcycles and bonding with cars. I’ve lived and worked all over the world in professional, educational, and recreational capacities. It’s completely believable, then, that I’d become a writer and editor with a focus on all things transportation and travel. I have over 3,600 published articles to my name, as well as extensive experience editing content. Over years of digital media work, I have acquired expertise in SEO and created numerous industry contacts. Let’s build something great together.Before my time as a writer and editor, I served as a non-profit board member, a full-time firefighter/EMT, an active duty US Marine non-commissioned officer, and an assistant water survival instructor. The result? Over 8 years of dynamic leadership experience and a unique perspective that comes out in everything I write and create.#cars #seo #journalism #editing #marketing #publicrelations
