Eric is a Principal Technical
Yahoo! at Yahoo!, Inc., where he is a lead developer on the Yahoo!
Messenger team. Since graduating from Purdue in 1994, Eric has been
building software applications on Windows platforms. Eric is
interested in all aspects of the .NET Framework, but specifically WPF,
Silverlight, and other client technologies. He is also particularly
interested in figuring out ways to improve performance of end-user
.NET client applications. Eric has spoken about WPF numerous times,
including at Microsoft and MIX07.
When not cranking out code or squeezing out the last bits of
performance on his WPF apps, Eric can be found hanging out with his
wife Jenn and their kids, Alexis and Nathan. He also enjoys coaching
football, watching football, thinking about football, talking about
football, and pretty much anything else that has to do with football.
