Eric Anderson co-founded SE2 with a clear vision: build an agency dedicated entirely to advancing meaningful social change.

With a professional foundation in journalism, Eric began his career committed to asking tough questions, elevating facts, and telling stories that matter. That early training continues to shape his leadership today. He understands the power of clear information, credible sourcing, and narrative integrity and he brings that discipline to every campaign SE2 undertakes.

For nearly three decades, Eric has helped shape SE2’s strategy, culture, and reputation as a trusted partner to public agencies and community organizations. From the beginning, he believed communications should serve a larger purpose, strengthening communities, informing public dialogue, and helping institutions earn trust through clarity and transparency.

Eric brings deep experience in public affairs and strategic communications, guiding high-stakes initiatives across public health, education, behavioral health, workforce, and civic engagement. He has helped clients navigate complex political and policy environments, align diverse stakeholders, and communicate with both precision and humanity. His strength lies in connecting long-term vision with disciplined execution, ensuring that big ideas are grounded, credible, and built to endure.

As a founder, Eric helped establish SE2’s enduring focus on public interest work and long-term public-sector partnerships. He has been instrumental in building relationships rooted in accountability, performance, and shared purpose.

Eric leads with steadiness and principle. His background in journalism instilled a respect for facts, context, and public responsibility — values that continue to guide SE2’s work today. He believes strong institutions matter, community voice matters, and well-crafted communications can help move systems toward something better.
