How and when did you decide to create a career path around Microsoft products? On my first week of college, I decided to start my Microsoft career, starting with MS certifications and self-study. Microsoft always was the most important IT company of the world, making this work motivating and challenging. What’s your favorite part about troubleshooting? How do you help others problem solve IT issues? My favorite part of troubleshooting is discovering more info about the situation and making the correlation with the logs. When this occurs, we keep working towards the final solution. Other problems can be fixed with the same method; analyzing, gathering, examining, and fixing. What resources do you use when you’re ‘stuck’ with a client question? When customers ask questions and I don’t immediately have answers, I explain the overview architecture and try to get a better understanding of the scenario. If we cannot discover this answer together, I explain that I will find this answer and come back to align. Who are some key IT individuals you follow (either blog or social)?
