Eric Helton was welcomed into TargetSolutions as a Client Services Representative last August. Born and raised in sunny San Diego, Eric grew up playing sports outdoors and continues to love basketball and football.
Before becoming a TargetSolutions team member, Eric worked with clients one-on-one as a Satellite Technician for DirecTV. His initial interest in TargetSolutions stemmed from his background in Criminal Justice, which he studied at Miramar College and San Diego State University. He appreciated the ability to help professionals train to protect communities across the country.
After working at TargetSolutions for a few months, Eric discussed how he enjoys coming into work and collaborating with the client services team to help customers. “It’s an honor to be a part of something bigger and serve those who serve,” he remarked.
