Ricky Schlesinger Biography :

Born in Roslyn, Long Island, Ricky never imagined he'd be a long time southern Californian resident let alone working for the same company for over twenty-five years. In fact, he still doesn't see it that way. "I never saw myself as a So Cal kinda guy, but every year my job changes dramatically. So when people ask me what it is like to have the same job for 25 years, I answer - I haven't - it's always evolving and renewing my commitment and interest, " Schlesinger states. With a broad grin and boisterous laugh, Schlesinger is comfy directing these dynamics of change as Eagle Creek is constantly evolving its product offering and communications to its dealers and consumers. "Travel is certainly high on our customers' list," says Schlesinger. "We hope to earn their trust by designing and offering products that are insightful to the travel process." Ricky's leadership is natural, yet not in a General George S. Patton kind of way. Approachable and immediately friendly, Schlesinger has been the point person on building hybrid travel adventure products and has been recognized for his innate abilities with various awards such as the Outdoor Retailer Leadership Award and has been appointed the Chairman of the Travel Goods Association. Providing travel solutions and looking for new ways to approach this burgeoning market segment is a natural for Ricky. Having driven a cab in Washington DC, played string bass in a bluegrass band, and studied photography, Schlesinger's talents and interests are as diverse as the cultures Eagle Creek consumers explore. "Many of our users perform in their chosen arena at a high level and appreciate the technical aspects and durability of our products. However, you don't have to climb 5.10 or paddle Class V to use Eagle Creek, " Schlesinger comments, "which is why we focus on building great product with general use applications." Ricky embraces the future and continues to bring elements of personal interest into the professional realm, "being in the outdoor and travel business is lucky because it integrates our business, our lifestyle and our sports interest rather than selling light bulbs. It is personally rewarding. I still feel there is a great creative opportunity, and look forward to facing new challenges. "
