Enabling employees to engage with their customers using technology is what I do. I’ve learned that creating teams with the same goal and empowering them is the biggest factor for success.
That for me is the basis of why I am falling for the Power Platform. It enables business teams to contribute to their own success. They can (co-) create apps, automate their processes and create their own insights. I love to engage with end-users and fulfill their wishes while I’m sitting right next to them.

From Zero to Hero: Mastering Power Fx Functions & Low-Code Plugins
Ready to supercharge your Power Platform skills? Join me for a hands-on session where you’ll learn how to build efficient, server-side processes using Power Fx functions and low-code plugins—without needing deep coding expertise.
We’ll start from the ground up, exploring what Power Fx functions and low-code plugins are, and how they streamline data validation by shifting logic from the client to the server. You’ll see how low-code plugins eliminate the traditional complexity of custom plugin development in Dataverse—no more manual registration or heavy C# coding. Instead, you’ll use Power Fx to build scalable logic directly within your environment.
Through a series of live demos, we’ll cover:
