Every blog has a first post! So this is it!

Like its title may suggest, the purpose of this blog is to share technical things I learned and what I am working on.

Given my background, you shouldn’t be surprised if most of the posts will be about .NET and AWS. Probably I’ll add something about Jekyll, we’ll see.
