Since then, I've been working with .NET in various forms, from ASP.NET WebForms to ASP.NET MVC to ASP.NET 5+, from Windows Forms to WPF to UWP, from WCF to WebAPI to gRPC, from SQL Server to MongoDB to CosmosDB.
While I've dabbled with other languages and platforms since, .NET has been my home, and pulling me back in as my platform of choice.
Today, my day job is running a consulting firm specializing in .NET development and Azure architecture.
At other times, I run an open, inclusive and educational twitch stream helping people experience and learn .NET.
