15 years building reliable IT foundations

Senior System Engineer, Cloud & Modern Workplace Specialist with more than 15 years of experience designing, implementing and managing complex IT infrastructures. Specialised in Microsoft Azure, Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), Microsoft Intune, Microsoft 365 and hybrid environments.
