The award is not just a title; it's a testament to the hard work, dedication, and contributions to the tech community. It's a privilege to be part of such an esteemed group of individuals who share the same love for technology, and sharing their knowledge about it. 

As I reflect on the past decade, I am thankful for the experiences and knowledge I've gained. This recognition motivates me to continue sharing my expertise, mentoring others, and contributing to the ever-evolving tech landscape.

I must not forget to thank everyone who has supported me along the way, especially family and my employer. Here's to another year of learning, sharing, and innovating as a Microsoft MVP!!
