Eric Adriaans is the writer, host and creator of Zensylvania. In 2017, Eric self-published his first collection of poetry, Leviathan: The Biographia Isocratica of Adrian Kun.
Eric was Born in Belleville, Ontario; while he doesn’t actually recall the occasion, he feels certain that he went home from the hospital in a mid-sixties Rambler Classic sedan…and that it may have been silver-grey in colour. He has lived, worked, and travelled extensively throughout the province ever since. Currently, he lives in Chatham-Kent with his wife, Kelly-Jo. He drives a 2022 Mitsubishi RVR, a mountain bike and paddles a kayak from time to time.
Eric obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and English Literature from Ottawa’s Carleton University in 1993. Later, he achieved NAFA’s Certified Automotive Fleet Manager designation. He studied Legislative Drafting via Athabasca University and is currently a student of Quality Management at George Brown College.
Eric spent 25-years (1991-2016) as a fundraising and community development professional with several of Canada’s most valued and respected health, animal welfare, and human rights charities . He capped his charitable sector career as the National Executive Director for a leading Canadian secular humanist organization.
Currently, Eric is employed by a multi-national corporation as a Quality Assurance Specialist – and couldn’t be more pleased with the convergence of his professional and intellectual interests.
