What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my skills in Power Platform and SharePoint to drive impactful digital solutions.

I am a Power Platform Developer with over 7 years of specialized experience in the Power Platform and SharePoint domains. My expertise lies in leveraging PowerApps, Power BI, and Power Automate to drive digital transformation and operational excellence within organizations. I have successfully managed user roles, permissions, and security policies for SharePoint and Drupal environments, enhancing compliance and data protection.

Throughout my career, I have led various migrations of SharePoint from on-premises setups to cloud-based solutions, designing and executing modernization strategies that utilize Power Automate and Power Apps. My strong skills in configuring SharePoint lists, views, and libraries ensure streamlined information management and easy data access. I am deeply knowledgeable in both SharePoint Online and on-premises systems, enabling me to refine SharePoint infrastructures to meet organizational objectives and enhance business outcomes.
