Hi, my name is Steve Collins, but given it is such a common name, I go by the alias of 'SteveTalksCode' on social media.

I am a freelance .NET Developer/Architect based in West Sussex, UK.

I am a keen follower of all things .NET and since 2020, have been an orgainiser of the Milton Keynes .NET User Group with the aim of bringing interesting speakers and projects to the comminity's attention.

I speak regularly at .NET conferences and user groups. If you’d like me to attend your event, please do reach out to me.

In November 2022, I was awarded the Microsoft MVP Awarded in Developer Technologies

The content on this blog intended to help others not only to understand issues and discoveries I have made as part of my day-to-day work, but to provide a closer look into parts of .NET that need better explanation.

If you find the content of this blog useful, I have a 'Buy Me A Coffee' link below which help keep the caffine levels topped up.
