WE KNOW DATA
As President and founder of Lanitek, Eric Barr has been developing database applications for over 25 years. He has worked with data in all kinds of databases and formats, from CSV and XML files to Microsoft SQL Server, and more. Besides working with his team on data applications, Eric has also taught classes on web application development, database programming, and Microsoft Office.
Eric has developed a strong passion for the nonprofit and government grant sector over the past 15 years working with clients such as UMKC School of Nursing and the American Cancer Society. This has given him a deep appreciation for how these organizations seek to improve the quality of life in our country. Eric strives to develop automation applications like GPRA Upload that help these organizations save time and reduce errors.
Eric grew up outside of Denver, Colorado. His interest in outdoor activities such as mountain biking and hiking took him to California to continue his education. After obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Mathematics from the University of California, Santa Barbara, Eric earned a Master's degree in Engineering Management from Santa Clara University. After he graduated, he decided to relocate to be near family in Kansas City and has since then made it his home. He also enjoys kayaking, playing backgammon, and spending time with family & friends.
