Hi. I am Eric Howell, a 22 year born and raised in Portland Oregon. I grew up with my two brothers; my twin Grant, and 26 year old Andrew. My parents got my brothers and I involved in outdoor activities early on so we took advantage of Oreogn's vast forests, snow covered mountains, and fresh water lakes. In my free time I enjoy hiking, skiing (when there's snow), watching my Blazers, and listening to music.
I am currently a senior studying accounting at the University of Oregon and expect to graduate Spring 2016. I've learned a lot in my four years here but I am very eager to apply my knowledge and start my career.
Portland will always be home base to me. I am very lucky to have grown up in this liberal and active city.
In the summer of 2014 I was fortunate enough to study abroad in one the most vibrant countries in the world - Spain. Immersing yourself truly is the best way to learn the language and the culture. I traveled, made life-long friends, had unforgettable experiences that wouldn't trade for anything. I encourage everyone to broaden their perspectives and travel if given the opportunity.
It seems like I became a student at The University of Oregon at the perfect time. For football anyways... I went to every home game and watched a Hiesman in the making.

Nicaragua really only has two seasons - wet and dry. Fortunately in January it is hot and dry. The biodiversity is unlike anything I've ever seen.

Cheese. Fish & Chips. Beer. Pretty much sums it up

I prescribed glasses to underprivileged Peruvians. To some people, it was liking seeing for the first time. A truly humbling and life changing experience.

Stormy oceans and deep diving. Saw the home to most fish on earth - The Great Barrier Reef.
