Eric Menna is the co-founder and COO of Loper. Growing up in a family full of educators, Eric was always told that the most valuable gift he’d be given in life was his education. At Georgetown, he made sure to take advantage of that gift as a STIA major in the SFS and one of four students in his class selected as an Undergraduate Research Fellow in the Mortara Center. After graduating from Georgetown, Eric moved to Chicago to keep learning as a consultant at Bain & Company in Chicago. After multiple cases with organizations like the KIPP Charter in St. Louis and The People’s Music School, Eric joined Sam in 2021 to start Loper.
