I'm a husband and father of two sons. I live and work at Leiria, Portugal. Currently I'm CEO at Eclo Solutions, a company that I've created in 2003 along with three colleagues. I'm co-founder of nanoFramework, an Open Source project that allows programming in C# for micro-controllers. I work mostly with Microsoft technologies, .NET Framework, C#, SQL, Azure. I also program in C and C++ when I need to get near the metal. I'm a curious type of person and I enjoy very much learning new stuff. I'm fascinated with everything related with science, space, sea, ships and submarines. I love reading, cooking, doing things and hanging around with interesting people. I'm very passionate and devoted to my job and my projects. I tend to be perfectionist and I'm very demanding of myself and the people I work with.
