I specialize in providing expert consulting and training in a wide range of Microsoft technologies. Having worked on this platform since the DOS days, I understand this platform from the metal to the latest leading bleeding edge.

I am Sahil Malik, author, trainer and consultant in various Microsoft technologies. I am a Microsoft MVP, an INETA speaker, and a prolific author and speaker.

More than anything else, I enjoy consulting and delivering solutions, I feel this keeps my nails sharp. I try and not rise to a stratospheric level of management, architecture and training where I get out of touch with what I love doing.
I am an avid blogger. I frequently write about technical stuff, opinions, and other stuff on my blog at blah.winsmarts.com.

I have authored three books, one of which, "Pro ADO.NET 2.0" was a solo effort and ended up being one of the highest sold ADO.NET 2.0 books. I have also authored a number of articles in leading magazines and websites. You can view a continous roster of my previous and upcoming writings.

I believe in community contributions, for purely personal benefit. As I interact with fellow developers in real time, I tend to learn more myself. It is truly a candle lights another candle example.

As always, I am anxious to hear from you. I love interacting with fellow techies, but due to the huge volume of emails I receive everyday, I cannot personally answer every single email I get. For individual technical queries and questions, please try searching my blog and the net for answers first. If you feel you have a rather compelling and interesting problem, I would love to hear about you, but due to a very heavy workload and commitments, I cannot answer your queries in a timely manner.

If you are contacting me regarding a legitimate work request, please include as much information as you can, and I will be in touch shortly.

Regardless, I do read every single email I get, so please feel free to contact me.
