It’s Been a Year – Microsoft MVP for the 11th Time!

What a ride this year has been. Back in May, my entire team was eliminated and I was laid off from Microsoft. Not long after, I was honored to be named a Docker Captain, and soon after that I landed a new role leading Azure and AKS at Jamf, helping run their SaaS products in the cloud.

And yesterday, I found out that I’ve been re-awarded as a Microsoft MVP! This marks my 11th year as an MVP, all in the span of just a few months of major ups and downs. After a short detour (just under four years) working at the mothership, I’m excited to be back in the MVP community.

I never take this recognition for granted. It’s an honor to return to the MVP ranks and continue contributing as a community champion in the worlds of Microsoft, Azure, Azure Kubernetes Service, AI, and Open Source.

To all the other MVPs who were renewed—and to the new awardees announced on October 1—congratulations!

Stay tuned!
