Don E

At an early age Don was obsessed with taking appliances apart and putting them back together. At age eleven he went to a LEGO Robotics camp for month and was bitten by the programming bug.



He played Quake and Team Fortress competitively, and began toying around with Worldcraft when the action died down. He contributed maps, ideas, coding, and obnoxious programmer art to Quake mods no one has ever heard of, such as Shub vs. Chthon and EraserMod (the movie, not the bot).



When he started college he landed a job at Signalogic, Inc. and found a love for hardware and embedded systems. After a few years he began working at Privacy, Inc. where he hopped on the OOP bandwagon. When asked about how he got his job at Gearbox, he would only say "In the end I think my professional experience and winning personality tipped the scales in my favor. Although the compromising surveillance photos and wiretaps probably helped too."



Don is terrified of spiders and zombies.
