Wow! What a beautiful day!
I’ve received this awesome award from Microsoft for my personal contributions to the Silverlight community in the last year.
I’m really honored to be part of this list of talented and smart people who contribute to build the next generation of internet applications, you all guys rock!!
A special thanks to my family for supporting me, to the Silverlight team for building a wonderful platform and to my MVP lead Alessandro Teglia, I have learned (and am learning) a lot from the community, hope to be able to help and grow again in the future!
