About

As a seasoned IT professional with nearly 25 years in the field, my expertise in designing, creating, and delivering technical training across various formats is unparalleled. My experiences as a Microsoft Certified Trainer for 20 years have honed my ability to rapidly assimilate new technologies and convert them into impactful lessons. I am adept at crafting hands-on lab activities in intricate development environments and have consistently proven my capabilities in maintaining and enhancing content libraries. I am dedicated to fostering a positive and inclusive learning environment, mentoring colleagues, and facilitating information flow.

I have spoken with several IT user groups about Azure and other technologies and I'm a strong advocate of #WIT and lifelong learning.

I am a certified Microsoft Cloud Solutions Architect, a Microsoft Certified Trainer, former Azure MVP since 2014, and I hold several other Microsoft certifications dating back to 2000 (does that date me?). I also had the pleasure of teaching Azure and other Microsoft technologies to Microsoft Partners. I bring 20+ years of technical experience and my own entrepreneurial lessons to my awesome role.

I am looking forward to what technology and the future bring.

Please feel free to connect.

    Best in Biz Awards’ uniqueness stems, in part, from the composition of our judging panel. Only writers, journalists, and contributors to business, consumer, financial, trade and technology publications, as well as broadcast outlets and analyst firms, are invited to serve as judges. Structured this way, Best in Biz Awards is able to leverage the experience and expertise of an influential group of national opinion makers to determine award winners.
