About the Author: Julio Casal

Julio Casal thumbnail
Over the last decade, I helped multiple teams at Microsoft build all sorts of C#/.NET cloud-based services that handle millions of requests every month. Then, in early 2023, I got laid off. So, before jumping into another 9-5 job, I decided to dedicate my full time to creating educational content around Microsoft developer technologies, which I had been doing on the side so far. Today I run a one-person business that teaches .NET developers how to unlock the power of the .NET platform to reach the next level in their careers. When I'm not working on my business, I'm enjoying time with my wife and three kids, playing board games, watching movies or enjoying beautiful places around Washington state.
