Background

About Erik Schmid

I was born in Sacramento, raised in Cameron Park, and currently live in the Historic Part of Folsom, California with my wife, Lisa, son Oliver and our dog (Hank). After graduating from California State University, Chico with a degree in Business Administration - Finance, I began my professional career in the mutual fund industry at Franklin Templeton Investments. I then moved into technology, selling advanced customer service systems for Pegasystems, Inc, IBM, Oracle and other high tech companies for 12 years before making the exciting career change into Real Estate and become my own boss. I wanted apply the same professional values I learned while working in corporate sales environments to my Real Estate relationships and transactions. In Febuary of 2006, in addition to my Real Estate Business, my interest in craft brewing led me to purchase 'The Brewmeister', which is a retail shop, selling equipment and supplies to craft brewers and home winemakers. The business is located in Historic Folsom, at 802A Reading Street. 916/985-7299 In February of 2010, my wife and I purchased and completely overhauled ElDoradoGuide.com, a community web portal for the residents and visitors of El Dorado County. The project took a few months, but is now up and running, going live May 1, 2010. Our goal is to grow the guide by continuing to create a greater sense of community amongst El Dorado County residents and businesses alike. In 2011 I spent most of the year brewing atJack Russell Brewery in Camino CA. As of January 2012, I am back, full time at The Brewmeister, and have my Real Estate license with Morris Williams Realty.
