Hello!

My name is Dilyana, but usually everybody calls me DD.

My favourite Microsoft product is D365 Marketing, which I have been blogging, posting, and talking about on social media for the last 2-3 few years now. I love getting involved with the Microsoft community out there, I speak at a lot of events and try to help out people at different forums where and when I can. If you want us to do a joint event together, I think that would be absolutely amazing, so definitely give me a shout. 😊

I got my first Microsoft MVP (most valuable professional) award this year (2021), which I am so proud of. I feel so lucky with all of the friends I have made within the community as part of that journey. (UN)fortunately, I have now had to give up my MVP because I recently stared a position as a technical specialist with Microsoft in the Healthcare vertical.

After work you can find me in our Taekwondo gym. I have been a black belt for the past 14 years. My favourite colour is blue (sometimes purple), and my favourite kick is a high section reverse hook kick.

That’s me in a nutshell, so if you want to share the love for #D365Marketing, #Taekwondo, languages or just have a chat, give me a shout.

My name is Iuliia and I'm a huge Salesforce fan. My journey with Salesforce began in 2010, and it has been a perfect match ever since. Before discovering Salesforce, I had extensive experience with various web technologies, but what truly captivated me was Salesforce's unique approach to solution-building. It challenges you to constantly think about the most effective implementation strategies. While there were (and still are :) ) many factors to consider and limitations to navigate, I find that these challenges often lead to elegant solutions. I love that Salesforce is constantly evolving the technology, you are always learning and growing.
I currently hold the full suite of certifications that allowed me to become a Salesforce Certified Application Architect, and am just two certifications away from becoming a Certified System Architect. I'm on my way!
My experience spans across the healthcare, financial, and education industries. One of my favourite projects was building a Salesforce app for estimating projects in real time and creating detailed project plans on the fly, which involved building and training mathematical models for rapid estimation. The icing on the cake was that it was not only an architectural role, but also a scientific one. I was fascinated by how the combination of scientific research and modern technologies can benefit the solution. I learned a lot of new things and will be happy to be a part of such cutting-edge projects in the future.
I'm passionate about opening new doors with Salesforce, exploring new areas, building strong customer relationships, seeing how our work makes clients happy, meeting new people, understanding their needs, and finding the best ways to help them achieve their goals.
