☑️ Upwork Expert-Vetted 🌟 | 100% Job Success Rate ✅ | 10,000+ hours 💻 across 200+ projects 🚀 Currently collaborating with Microsoft’s dev and engineering teams 🛠️ as a freelance Technical Lead on Copilot, Intune, and Defender for Endpoint. I get early access to features 📅 and bug fixes 🐛, working 3-4 cycles ahead of public release. This insider view flows directly into my client projects. With 16+ years in the industry 📈 and $4M+ in projects delivered 🌐, I’m focused on solutions that are secure 🔒, compliant 📜, and effective. My hands-on role with Microsoft keeps me at the forefront, ready to deliver enterprise-grade results. 📞 Let’s set up a free 30-minute consultation 💬 to discuss📅 You could hire someone else for a lower rate who takes 5x as long to do the job right. You could also hire me, sit back relax and let an expert implement your solution exactly as needed. Think of me as your cloud solutions Advil. I reliably relieve headaches instead of causing them. 🗣️❝𝙍𝙞𝙙𝙞𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙤𝙪𝙨𝙡𝙮 𝙚𝙛𝙛𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙝𝙧𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙄 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙉𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙮.
