Today, we had the opportunity to hear from one of the true pillars of BNI Achievers, Eric Fowlston, during his feature presentation.
Eric is the owner of Tactical Home Loans and has built his business around helping others achieve homeownership, with a particular passion for serving military veterans. As a lender, he understands that the VA loan process can often feel overwhelming and confusing to those unfamiliar with it. Eric takes pride in educating and guiding veterans through every step, ensuring they fully understand and maximize the benefits they earned through their service.
Eric is also our chapter’s founding member and has been a part of BNI for more than 20 years. Over the years, he has served as Chapter President multiple times and continues to embody the very best of BNI’s Givers Gain® philosophy. His willingness to support others, share opportunities, and invest in the success of fellow members has helped shape the culture that makes our chapter so strong today.
Beyond his contributions to BNI, Eric dedicated 22 years of service to the United States Air Force. As a combat veteran, he participated in military operations around the world, serving our nation with distinction and leadership.
What stood out most in today’s presentation was not just Eric’s professional accomplishments, but the humility, character, and servant leadership that have defined his military career, his business, and his involvement in BNI. Members like Eric remind us that success is measured not only by what we achieve personally, but by how many others we help along the way.
Thank you, Eric, for your decades of service to our country, your leadership within BNI Achievers, and your commitment to helping veterans and families navigate the path to homeownership. Your presentation was both inspiring and a powerful reminder of what it means to lead through service.
