Eric didn't pursue professional software development until the mid 90's and has found both a career and a passion. Eric cut his teeth creating web sites and writing VB applications, but transitioned to .Net while 1.0 was still in beta. Since that time, Eric has focused on the .Net platform and it's capability to build distributed web-based applications. Eric earned an MCSD in Visual Basic.Net, but transitioned to C# at the first opportunity and hasn't looked back.
