I’m extremely honored to be named Microsoft Data Platform MVP for the third year in a row! I thank the technical community that allows me to speak on topics that I am truly passionate about. A community award like this is never an expectation or an entitlement, and is never an assumption in my book. I’m humbled to say the least. As always, I’m going to continue to do what I do – spread knowledge around the convergence of infrastructure and SQL Server to help people make their data more available and perform better – and hope that I’m making a difference!

Thank you Microsoft!
