Ownership

E.L. Valentine is the pen name of Eric Leins, an award-winning American writer and storyteller currently living in Tirana.

Eric is the youngest son of German immigrants who moved to the United States after World War II—a time when small businesses and entrepreneurship were thriving. Growing up in a family that successfully ran their own business for 40 years, Eric learned early on how economic opportunity can shape a meaningful and stable life.

Today, Eric believes that Albania is entering a similar period of growth and possibility, as the country becomes more active on the global stage both culturally and economically. His mission is to help Albania succeed by supporting local business owners and entrepreneurs in developing strong brands, using his professional skills in marketing, storytelling, and journalism at an international level.
