Eric Smith

Developer BIO

Eric Smith in 2003 is a Software Developer with Valve.

Eric has a B.S. degree from the DigiPen Institute of Technology in Redmond, WA.

Programming has been Eric's obsession since he began programming in Basic on his Atari 800 when he was 12. His college career began at the University of Washington where he studied Electrical Engineering. Unhappy with Engineering, he landed a job as a Game Counselor at Nintendo. Over the years, he was promoted and ended up handling Risk Management issues for Nintendo. When DigiPen opened its doors in the U.S. in January 1998, Eric saw an opportunity to change careers and "make" games instead of just play them.

Eric has lived in Washington most of his life and enjoys all the outdoor activities this area provides.
