Meet Eric

Background

I’m Eric Gisler, and I’m running to represent Georgia House District 121.

I’ve lived in this district since 2003, but Georgia has always been home (except for a brief stint in California). I grew up in Atlanta, started college at Georgia Southern, and earned my degree from the University of Georgia in Athens.

Professionally, I’ve spent my career in financial services technology. I currently serve as Head of Product at an insurance tech startup, where I lead teams to solve complex problems and build products that help people manage risk in commercial real estate. I’m also a small business owner — I run a local shop that sells olive oils and balsamic vinegars. 

I’m running for State House because I believe Georgia can do better — and I want to be part of the solution. Our state is full of potential, but too many families are struggling with the cost of living, inadequate healthcare, underfunded schools, and a lack of affordable housing. These aren’t partisan problems — they’re real-life challenges, and they deserve real-life solutions.

My approach to leadership is collaborative and data-driven. I believe in listening first, using facts to guide decisions, and focusing on what will actually improve people’s lives — especially working people, not just corporations or wealthy donors. I view potential solutions through a simple lens: 

• Is it constitutional? 

• Is it good for working Georgians? 

• Will it help us build a better future for our state?

I’m not running to play political games. I’m running because I care deeply about this community and want to represent it with integrity. 

Whether you’re a Democrat who hasn’t felt heard in recent elections, a Republican frustrated by extremism, or someone who’s just ready for practical, respectful leadership, I hope to earn your support.
