Adam Najmanowicz (Cognifide)

About me

I'm a software developer/architect and project lead in the Poland based offices of Cognifide with substantial experience in Microsoft .Net Framework, Delphi as well as a Java development and a wide range of RDBM systems. Currently specializing in EPiServer based solutions, leading the .Net team in Cognifide.
I'm drawing a lot of joy from providing neat, intuitive and user friendly solutions that "just work" in both consumer and enterprises environments... and writing about them.
Other than this blog I also write passionately at Codality which I will probably cross post articles with.”
