I’m excited to announce I’ll be speaking at M365 Twin Cities! This free community conference brings together a full day of Microsoft 365 and Power Platform content, and I’d love to see you there.

I’m excited to share that I’ll be speaking at TechCon 365 Seattle, running August 24–28, 2026. This is one of the best gatherings in the Microsoft 365 ecosystem, and this year’s developer track is stacked with some of the sharpest dev speakers in the community who will be sharing real-world, tested content. If you write code for SharePoint, Teams, Viva, or Power Platform, this is where you’ll want to be.

I’m thrilled to announce that on January 5, 2026, I joined Solution Foundry as a Senior Technology Advisor. While I’m publishing this a bit later than planned, I wanted to share this expanded role that represents an exciting opportunity to combine strategic planning, hands-on development, and team training in ways that build on my nearly two decades of SharePoint and Microsoft 365 experience.

As someone who’s been blogging about technical topics for years, I’ve always struggled with consistency. Some articles feel more conversational, others too formal. Some include helpful context and anecdotes, others jump straight into code. The voice varies depending on when I wrote it, how much coffee I’d had, and what mood I was in that day.

What if I could capture my writing style—the good parts—and have AI help me maintain that consistency across everything I write?

I’m very excited to announce I’ll be in Miami for the Microsoft 365 Community Day Miami event. This will be my first time speaking in Miami, but have heard so many awesome things about the event and the city itself. If you are in the area, please come by and say hello. I always love meeting new people and catching up with old friends.

If you’ve been working with SharePoint Framework (SPFx) for any length of time, you know the drill: look up the Node.js version compatibility, install the right LTS version, manually install Yeoman, the SPFx generator, and the correct task runner (Gulp or Heft, depending on the version). For modern SPFx versions, this might take 5 minutes if you know what you’re doing. For older versions or platform-specific deployments like SharePoint 2019 or Subscription Edition? Much longer.

What if I told you there’s a way to do all of this in under a minute, completely automated, for any SPFx version—past, present, or future?
