Hi, I’m Marco Siccardi, a technology enthusiast and self-taught programmer specializing in .NET/C# for over a decade. I’m passionate about the MVVM design pattern and have recently begun exploring Swift for native development. I enjoy diving into other programming languages when needed and continuously expanding my skills.

I develop and publish software under the name MSiccDev Software Development. Beyond coding, I’m a proud father of two young adults and a husband to an amazing wife.

My programming journey began with a need for a fishing knots app for Windows Phone.
