New Year, New Role

As we head into 2016, I am happy to share that I am moving into a new role at Microsoft as a Collaboration Solution Architect at the Microsoft Technology Center in Boston, MA.

The Microsoft Technology Centers (MTCs) are collaborative environments that provide access to innovative technologies and world-class expertise, enabling Microsoft’s customers and partners to envision, design, and deploy solutions to meet their exact needs.

In my new role at the MTC I will continue to work closely with Microsoft’s enterprise customers, services, and partners to architect solutions that leverage Office 365 and related technologies including SharePoint, Office, Yammer, Skype for Business, OneDrive for Business, and Exchange. My primary responsibilities will be leading Strategy Briefings, Architecture Design Sessions, Workshops, and Proof of Concept engagements at the Boston MTC.

I will also be able to go broader and deeper into other Microsoft technologies including the Enterprise Mobility Suite (primarily Azure Active Directory, Intune, and Azure Rights Management), Dynamics CRM, Azure, PowerApps and Power BI.

I am very excited to be joining and contributing to the Worldwide MTC community and look forward to blogging here more, continuing to speak at various external events, and contributing content via the MTC Studios.

Happy New Year to all.

    Congrats on the new role, Chris! That's a fun role -- one I looked into back in 2009 in Redmond. What really appeals to me in the ability, as you point out, to touch many other MS technologies and build POCs for customers. Cool stuff., You'll do great!

    This is awesome, Chris! The MTC will be a great place for you to stretch your creativity. In case you didn't hear, I recently took on a new role at Microsoft as well...I'm the new Program Manager for Application Insights.
