Rising Stars: Meet Eric Green of Sanford

Today we’d like to introduce you to Eric Green.

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
Born in Sanford, Florida, and raised by two loving parents who instilled the values of entrepreneurship at an early age, I developed a lifelong passion for creating my own path. To me, working for myself represents not only freedom, but also a deeper sense of purpose.

After earning a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science and a Master’s in Public Administration from Florida A&M University, I launched Eric Green Collection—a bold, innovative brand that blends creativity with craftsmanship, focusing on fashion and accessories. Through this venture, I have had the privilege of traveling the world, collaborating with visionary designers and celebrity stylists, and exploring the limitless possibilities of creative expression.

My journey later expanded into authorship with the release of my first children’s book, Treasures Under the Sea, a heartwarming story designed to inspire children to dream without limits and to never give up. At its core, the book reminds young readers that what may feel lost is often just a dream away.

From real estate to fashion to literature, I have been blessed with opportunities that have shaped both my career and my outlook on life. Yet, what excites me most is the chance to give back—empowering my community and encouraging others to embrace every opportunity, pursue their passions, and live life to the fullest.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The journey has been anything but smooth, but every twist and turn has been worth it. There were moments when I considered taking an easier path, yet I chose early on that giving up simply wasn’t an option. Some of the toughest battles came from friends, family and people who couldn’t see the vision. Which made it all the more important to remember my “why” and keep pushing toward my purpose.

Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I specialize in all things creative—singing, performing, acting, and designing. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to explore each of these passions, but one of my proudest achievements is the release of my debut children’s book, Treasures Under the Sea. This heartwarming story is designed to inspire children to dream without limits and to never give up. At its core, the book reminds young readers that what may feel lost is often just a dream away.

What truly sets me apart is my willingness to try. I believe creativity thrives on courage—the courage to put yourself out there, to take risks, and to see what happens. Because you’ll never know what’s possible until you do.

Is there a quality that you most attribute to your success?
My faith, my “why” and always moving forward.
