I am the co-founder and CEO of bc4all, building WrenchTime, a modern CMMS developed natively inside Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

Building product in the Dynamics ecosystem is what I do. I have spent the last decade focused on CMMS and EAM software for Microsoft Dynamics, as a developer, consultant, product manager and account executive. Later as Managing Director of an international ISV with apps on AppSource and a partner channel of more than 50 resellers across Europe and the US.

Through all of it I have formed strong opinions about how companies should work: trust people, say the true thing early, and strip out the coordination that produces no value. I have run teams across borders long enough to know it holds up.

Today that means building the company of my dream, with my co-founder and CTO Krzysztof Białowąs, Business Central MVP.

I also serve on the board of Sprint365 and advise CoGo IoT. I am based in Aalborg, Denmark.

I had an unusual start at university — my first year was in Medicine. Soon I discovered my path was elsewhere, and I pivoted into Industrial Engineering at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) in Barcelona. That early change shaped how I approach challenges today: with curiosity, adaptability, and a strong analytical mindset.

After graduating, I stepped straight into the world of ERP, working with Microsoft Dynamics AX (2009, 2012) and evolving alongside the ecosystem into what is now Dynamics 365. From the beginning, I was fortunate to go beyond pure ERP implementation — combining functional and technical work with Business Intelligence, systems architecture, and later, data and AI-driven solutions.

Today, I lead the technical department at a Microsoft partner consultancy, where I’m responsible for architecture, development standards, and innovation across projects involving Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations, Power Platform, Azure, and AI. My role sits at the intersection of technology, people, and strategy: designing scalable solutions while helping teams grow technically and professionally.

One of the most meaningful parts of my job is mentoring. I was lucky to have people who invested in my growth early in my career, and now I strive to do the same for others. Watching a colleague take their first independent “step” — solving a problem, leading a feature, making a design decision — is one of the most rewarding moments in my day-to-day work.

Beyond delivery, I’m passionate about sharing knowledge through talks, technical content, and community initiatives, especially around applied AI in business applications. I strongly believe that technology creates real impact only when it empowers people — both users and the professionals building the solutions.

Cybersecurity has afforded me a front and leading role in transforming organizations as they adopt new technologies. It's been as much about architecture, business cases, up-skilling, and reorganizing as it has been about safeguards, compliance, and governance.

I've navigated organizations through service oriented architecture, mobile computing, cloud computing, and now AI.

It takes more than technical training or even leadership (both important); it also takes making sure that the people who are learning the skills know where they need to be on day 1 of "go live".

Building the operating picture and orienting the organization for it is my role.

Presently I am an Adjunct Professor at the University of Cincinnati and Associate Director of the Ohio Cyber Range Institute.

I build Typewrite, a writing environment that treats a screenplay as structured data — a graph of scenes, characters and relations — instead of a text document.
