Awarded Microsoft MVP for the sixth year in a row

Together with more than a thousand other MVPs worldwide, I was eagerly awaiting July 1 – the day when Microsoft sends out the renewal emails for MVPs. And I am very honoured to announce that I have received the prestigious Most Valuable Professional (MVP) award for the sixth year in a row. Being part of this amazing group of people is something I am very grateful for.

In Microsoft’s words, “Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals, or MVPs, are technology experts who passionately share their knowledge with the community. They are always on the “bleeding edge” and have an unstoppable urge to get their hands on new, exciting technologies. They have very deep knowledge of Microsoft products and services, while also being able to bring together diverse platforms, products and solutions, to solve real world problems. MVPs make up a global community of over 4,000 technical experts and community leaders across 90 countries and are driven by their passion, community spirit, and quest for knowledge. Above all and in addition to their amazing technical abilities, MVPs are always willing to help others – that’s what sets them apart.”

Receiving this award shows that my efforts in building and supporting the Singaporean Office 365 and SharePoint community, as well as my other community related efforts have a valuable impact. Nevertheless, this doesn’t mean that I’ll take it for granted, and will continue working hard on providing more learning and sharing opportunities for our small community here in Singapore. And personally, I’m looking forward to constantly improving my skillset – not just SharePoint and Office 365 related, but also in the space of Azure and AWS, which I’ve had the pleasure of working with more and more since I joined Synergy Asia Pacific last year.
