Awarded as a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP), BizTalk for 1/1/2011 – 1/1/2012

I am incredibly excited and humbled to share some wonderful news: I have officially been awarded as a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) in the BizTalk Server category for 2011!

A Journey of Shared Knowledge

This award is a reflection of the journey we’ve taken together on this blog. From the BizTalk 2010 Installation Series to the various mapping patterns and utility packs I’ve shared, my goal has always been to make enterprise integration more accessible for everyone.

I would like to thank the people at Microsoft for awarding me as a BizTalk MVP, community members, and other people involved. This will be my first year in the MVP Program. I am very excited and happy about it, and look forward to doing as much as I can in the community this year to earn the reward.

And special thanks to all my coworkers at DevScope for all the support.

It’s a big honor to be in the program.

Now in my native language (Portuguese):

É com muito prazer que anuncio que desde o dia 1 de Janeiro sou BizTalk MVP 2011! Confesso que fui apanhado completamente de surpresa…

Gostaria de agradecer a todas as pessoas da Microsoft pela nomeação como um MVP de BizTalk, a todos os membros da comunidade, aos meus colegas de trabalho da DevScope por todo o suporte e a todas as outras pessoas envolvidas. Em especial, um grande obrigada ao José António Silva e ao Rui Barbosa por acreditarem em mim. Por fim e não menos importante, agradecer à minha namorada por me aturar estes anos todos.

Espero continuar a contribuir para a comunidade BizTalk e a merecer o reconhecimento.
