Norwood Democratic Party

Eric THOMPSON - for Council-At-Large

Eric Thompson, a resident of Norwood for the last 8 years, may be a first-time candidate, but he’s had a life-long interest in politics and an even greater passion for problem- solving. Eric knows that the most impactful way to create positive change in our community starts at a local level, and he is ready to be a voice of change for Norwood.

Eric believes in Norwood’s potential, and while he’s impressed with many of the steps this city has taken to improve its image and quality of life for our residents, he thinks there is more we can do to ensure the city remains a place of progress and opportunity that we’re proud to call home. More specifically, Eric looks forward to collaborating with the rest of Council to address the city’s finance and infrastructure issues while asserting that the community’s concerns be addressed openly and with transparency. 

Eric’s career as an Art Director in the advertising and marketing field spans 20 years. The creative problem-solving and collaboration skills instrumental in his daily work are directly applicable to the skills required for identifying and executing solutions to help solve our city’s challenges. Teamwork, compromise, empathy, and outside-the-box thinking are tasks he excels at and would bring to his role as a Council member.
