Summary
Luis Abreu is a seasoned .NET software developer and architect with over a decade of experience building business-critical web and distributed applications from COM/C++ roots to modern ASP.NET architectures. He has led architecture and delivery across multiple companies, introduced TDD and agile practices to teams, and delivered solutions that halved key business process times and cut administration costs. An early .NET adopter and community contributor, he authored the first Portuguese books on ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET AJAX and was recognized as an ASP.NET MVP and an ASP Insider. Based in Madeira, Portugal, he combines deep systems-level knowledge (COM, C++) with contemporary skills in C#, VB.NET, SQL Server, WCF, AJAX and DDD/TDD, making him fluent in both legacy migration and new greenfield projects. Less obvious: he’s repeatedly been tapped by Microsoft for feedback, POCs and screencasts, highlighting a rare blend of technical credibility and clear communication.
