Eric founded Spillway Advisory after recognizing a persistent and growing gap: most SMBs understand that AI matters, but lack the internal expertise, unbiased guidance, or structured approach to move from awareness to action. Spillway Advisory exists to close that gap — acting as a trusted partner that helps businesses navigate the AI landscape with confidence and clarity.
Based in Park Ridge, New Jersey, Eric works with clients across the NJ/NY metro area and remotely with businesses nationwide.
A spillway is an engineering structure built to safely channel powerful forces — water that could otherwise be destructive, uncontrolled, and overwhelming — into productive, measured energy.
That's the metaphor at the heart of Spillway Advisory. AI is an enormous and powerful force. For many businesses, it feels chaotic, risky, and hard to get a handle on. Without proper guidance, that's exactly what it becomes.
Spillway Advisory's role is to be the spillway: to channel AI's power into focused, manageable, and measurable outcomes for your business — so you can harness its potential without the overwhelm.
To empower small and mid-size businesses to understand, adopt, and implement artificial intelligence — transforming complexity into competitive advantage.
