Alessandro Melchiori

Software craftsman, husband, father, ex-sportsman and inquiring reader. Since I was young I have loved taking apart and reassembling things to understand how they work. Now, this passion has become my job: the step from Lego® to software development was small.

Be it a command or an event, I try to do my best in contributing to the life of the communities that have adopted me, trying to “give back” at least a part of what I have received over these years.

🔹React 🔸Microsoft 365 / Azure ♦️Angular

I am 25 year old and I started my career 7 years ago, even though my passion and interest were born more than 12 years ago.

Starting from the basics, from understanding how a simple web application worked and was created, I was amazed by what a developer is able to see and create behind the scenes and by what an end customer uses, thus making my decision to enter in this world.

As a developer, I divide my time between the frontend development on Microsoft technologies and the in-depth analysis of the new Microsoft 365 / React technologies, together with the involvement on the various Italian and international communities, trying to give my contribution and to learn more every day.

Right now: learning more about AWS 😁

Microsoft MVPs

Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals (MVPs) are recognized experts in their respective technical communities who actively share their knowledge and expertise with others. The MVP award is given to individuals who have made significant contributions to the Microsoft community through their involvement in technical forums, user groups, conferences, and other events. As a result, many MVPs are sought after as speakers at industry events, sharing their knowledge and insights with others.

When an MVP adds their award to their speaker profile, it can serve as a powerful endorsement of their expertise and credibility. Event organizers and attendees alike recognize the MVP award as a symbol of excellence in the field of Microsoft technology, and are more likely to view MVP speakers as authorities on the subject matter they are presenting. This can help MVPs secure speaking engagements, as well as increase their visibility and recognition within the community.

In addition to the benefits for the MVPs themselves, including the ability to network with other experts and gain exposure for their work, the community as a whole can benefit from the contributions of MVP speakers. By sharing their knowledge and insights with others, MVPs help to elevate the level of expertise and understanding within the Microsoft community, ultimately leading to better products and services for everyone.
