As a Microsoft 365 Modern Workplace consultant I help customers implement modern workplace solutions based on top of their Microsoft 365 licensing, leveraging products like Microsoft Intune, Microsoft Entra, Microsoft Defender, Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams, Microsoft SharePoint and Microsoft Purview.

The Secure At Work solution is already running om more than 10K endpoints, making it proven solution and able to cover 80% of business requirements.

With more than 25 years of experience in IT, I managed to get myself Microsoft certified in 1998, eventually becoming a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT), en ultimately receiving my first Microsoft MVP award in 2010.
