After his IT studies, Ernie started his IT career as a webmaster at the National Accelerator Centre. At Leisure Planet International he created real-time reservation systems and the online travel guides before joining Dockside Internet, where he developed the Directory Builder product, a portal Content Management System. As the lead developer on products such as GraphicMail and TriggerSMS, he brings a wealth of experience in programming ASP/SQL, as well as Java and VB script to Quattro. Often quiet and pensive, he seems happiest when challenged to develop complex product improvements within unreasonable time restraints.
