Our Story

In August of 1997, Eric and Jerrica arrived in New York City to begin their formal vocal training at the Manhattan School of Music. Little did they know, as they shook hands outside of the Broadway Suites Hotel on move-in day, that 3 and half years from that moment they would discover that they were one anothers destiny.

When they finally discovered this in December of 2000, it would change the shape of their lives. The two years following would not be easy. They would move 6 times, have more jobs than could be counted and finally end up 900 miles from the place they had called home for almost 5 years. They moved back to Jerrica's hometown of Atlanta, GA which was entirely new territory to the Connecticut-born Eric.

After 6 months of getting back on their feet they finally decided to venture back into the performance realm. They attended an audition for OnstageAtlanta's "Ragtime: IN CONCERT" and landed the leading roles and would proceed to do several more leading roles over the next year.

In June of 2004, Eric and Jerrica finally tied the knot! It was only 2 weeks after the honeymoon though before they jumped right back into the "rat race" performing first with the Aurora Theater, then again with Onstage Atlanta and finally got their big break with the Springer Opera House's production of Man of La Mancha in the roles of Aldonza and Sancho. This production of La Mancha marked their ninth production performing as a couple. Audiences have been mesmerized by their onstage chemistry and directors impressed by their offstage professionalism, cheerful disposition, and work ethic.

Their time at the Springer allowed them to further develop their business, Digital Reality Design. Their company specializes in web design, video production and editing, and photography. They are also able to convert older audio and video (VHS, cassette tape) formats to DVD or CD. Please view their links page to see some samples from their web portfolio.
