Dhruvin Shah

I have hands on experience on different Microsoft Technologies – Power Platforms (Power BI, Microsoft Flow and PowerApps). Apart from Power Platforms, I worked on SharePoint Online and different Office 365 components like MS Teams. I also worked on MS BI (SSAS, SSRS and SSIS). Currently, my main focus is only in Power Platform, where I’m focusing more on Power BI, PowerApps and MS Flow. I always keep eye on new features launched in the Power Platform to serve my client better.

Power BI – Specifically within the Power BI, I have hands on experience to handle 15+ Power BI initiative for different clients. I have explored almost every element of Power BI like – Report Development, Visualization, Custom Visual Development, ETL Tool Development, Power BI Embedded, Power BI Report Server, PBIRS Migration and DAX Preparation.

PowerApps – I worked with Canvas App development in PowerApps, where we have consumed data from SQL and SharePoint. The App has Form development, Custom Grid development and Automation functionality by triggering Actions from the MS Flow.

MS Flow – Based on client’s requirement, I have developed the MS Flow as a part of Automation from PowerApps and SharePoint Online

MS BI – For So many initiatives, I build SSIS packages to migrate the data. I also have hands on experience to build SSAS cube from the data warehouse.

I am constantly three times C# Corner MVP. I have written around 100+ Articles and 15+ Blogs on Power BI, PowerApps, MS Flow and SharePoint. Visit my C# Corner Profile -

Microsoft MVPs

Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals (MVPs) are recognized experts in their respective technical communities who actively share their knowledge and expertise with others. The MVP award is given to individuals who have made significant contributions to the Microsoft community through their involvement in technical forums, user groups, conferences, and other events. As a result, many MVPs are sought after as speakers at industry events, sharing their knowledge and insights with others.

When an MVP adds their award to their speaker profile, it can serve as a powerful endorsement of their expertise and credibility. Event organizers and attendees alike recognize the MVP award as a symbol of excellence in the field of Microsoft technology, and are more likely to view MVP speakers as authorities on the subject matter they are presenting. This can help MVPs secure speaking engagements, as well as increase their visibility and recognition within the community.

In addition to the benefits for the MVPs themselves, including the ability to network with other experts and gain exposure for their work, the community as a whole can benefit from the contributions of MVP speakers. By sharing their knowledge and insights with others, MVPs help to elevate the level of expertise and understanding within the Microsoft community, ultimately leading to better products and services for everyone.
