About Eric

Eric Harrell

From early on, Eric has always held the desire to make analysis and problem solving a career.  After completing study at Virginia Tech, Eric joined a small technology firm to develop what would become an industry leading financial planning software.  Working in development and design, Eric’s primary focus was on designing background calculations and ongoing refinement of the planning philosophy delivered by the software.


Having spent the majority of his career involved in the design of financial planning software, Eric decided to pursue other industries, including healthcare, where he led a team that delivered large scale insurance customer portals.  These portals continue to provide a platform for customer solutions addressing commercial and Medicare insurance customer needs.  Eric has most recently worked with a large brokerage and bank to provide design and support for straight through processing applications, and deep, enterprise-wide integration with newly, on-boarded vendor financial planning applications.
