CV

Profile

I love expending time with my wife and kids, going camping or playing in the park, flyings drones and taking nice pictures, jumping from waterfalls and sometimes taking risks. I love being with people, learning new stuff, sharing tips and tricks and pains that guided me towards success. I'm scared of being unprepared in front of an audience and because of that I spend a lot of time preparing for my talks. I found out that I actually like writing, love sharing and get very excited to present.

Background

I have over 20 years of professional experience where most of it is with the Microsoft stack. In the last 5 years, I've been working as a Chief Technical Officer of a Vista Early Investment, a small start-up based in Melbourne, focusing on scalable microservice applications with Azure technologies.

I also have been organizing meetups, running trainings and doing talks all over Australia and the world about Azure, Angular, VueJs, Docker and Microsoft stack.
