Coach Erick began swimming competitively for the Hildebrandt Mustangs. He also swam for the Klein Oak panthers and summer league for several years.

After a couple of years out of high school he missed being part of competitive swimming and came back as an assistant coach for the Windrose Stingrays. Erick then began working with year-round swim teams shortly after. He has been part of the coaching staff for Spring Swim Team and Team FINS as well a swim instructor for FINS. Apart from helping kids develop and improve their swimming skills, Erick is a tutor and a substitute teacher at Ehrhardt Elementary and has been part of the after school daycare program at Ehrhardt for the last four years. He is very excited to be part of the Sharks Team and he is looking forward to a fantastic summer. “Teaching kids how to compete and have fun doing so has become my passion and my happiest moments are when kids achieve their goals.”
