His clients have included, among others, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Internal Revenue Service, Fortune 500 companies in various industries, financial institutions including investment banks, law firms, accounting firms, and individual taxpayers. Erickson brings these real world experiences to his “Taxes & Business Strategy” and executive education courses at Booth.

He has been given several awards from the American Taxation Association for his research and teaching. He has received the Outstanding Manuscript Award (twice) as well as an award for teaching innovation.
