Chris Eargle has designed and developed enterprise applications for 15 years. He is a 7-year Microsoft C# MVP, the founder and mentor of the Columbia Enterprise Developers Guild, and a frequent guest of conferences and community events.

Chris is a native Carolinian; his family settled the Dutch Fork region of South Carolina in 1752. He currently resides in Columbia with his wife, Binyue, his dog, Laika, and his three cats: Meeko, Tigger, and Sookie. Amazingly, they all get along... except for Meeko, who is by no means meek.
