Hi, I’m Eric Boelts. I’m a design-focused entrepreneur and educator with a passion for branding, posters, and advertising. I’ve led Brain Bolts since 2001, co-founded Boelts Bros. Associates, and spent years teaching design at universities and colleges while helping students grow as thoughtful, capable creatives. When I’m not building brands or teaching, I’m exploring design collaborations, judging poster competitions, and curating visually inclusive work through posters and exhibitions such as Posters Without Borders. I love combining strategic thinking with bold visuals to help ideas connect with people.
