Erick-Woods Erickson’s Summary
For almost six years I worked as a transactional attorney and political consultant. Beyond handling complex corporate transactions and estate plans, I managed or consulted with candidate for federal, state, and local office across the nation.
In 2004, I joined the Board of Directors of RedState.com, Inc., a Virginia 527 organization and then incorporated RedState, Inc. in 2006 as a media company. The Board of Directors sold RedState.com and its affiliated network effective January 1, 2007, to Eagle Publishing, Inc. I maintain my current position as managing editor of the site and continue to consult on races across the country.
When I'm not blogging, you can usually find me giving speeches about the internet and politics, or quoted on the radio, television, or a newspaper somewhere. In my spare time I cover Georgia politics at www.peachpundit.com.
