He spent a few years after college working at Strindbergs Intima Teater (August Strindberg's Intimate Theatre) and Riksteatern among other. In 2006 Erik started collaborating with Swedish National Radio Theatre and has to this day finished close to 20 productions.In 2010 Erik initiated an anti violence project. He wrote and performed in a movie that was used as a way to reach out to young students to create a discussion about the impact of youth violence. The idea as well as the movie was partly based on his own experiences of violence and feeling of helplessness growing up in a high crime suburb to Stockholm. The Movie "Res Dig Inte!" (Stay down!) was later purchased by the Swedish National Broadcasting Company, Sveriges Televsion.He also voiced characters in the animated trilogy "Djurvännerna" (The Animal Friends), by Eva Lindstrom, which was nominated for the distinguished Guldbagge award.In the fall of 2015 Erik was casted as Oliver Craig in the Russian Comedy "Eternal Summer" .
