At the end of last year, Telerik unveiled their new “Developer Expert” program. According to Burke Holland, Developer Advocate at Telerik, “Telerik Developer Experts are those who have not only mastered their craft, but they’ve mastered Telerik tools as well.” With that introduction, you can imagine how honored I was to have been recently named a Telerik Developer Expert in Kendo UI.

For the uninitiated, Kendo is Telerik’s comprehensive JavaScript framework that helps developers build modern HTML5 web sites and apps.

There are currently 36 Telerik Developer Experts form 13 different countries, all specializing in different Telerik products including the Telerik Platform, Kendo UI, and Sitefinity. It’s an honor to be in such an elite group, and I’m happy to get a chance very soon to take advantage of one of the program’s perks. I’ll be speaking at Charlotte NC’s Enterprise Developers Guild next month about using Kendo UI and AngularJS together. Telerik is sending me some great give-aways to raffle to those in attendance. Thanks, Telerik!
