Howdy folks - Sharing the news today that after 34 years, I've retired from Microsoft. It's hard to capture three decades in a single post, but what I'll carry with me most are the people, the colleagues who became friends, the customers who challenged us to be better, and the partners who built alongside us. You made my career at Microsoft richer and more rewarding than I could have imagined. I'm not slowing down, though! I'm going all-in on my second career as a volleyball coach. I've been coaching volleyball for over a decade, and I'm excited to get to focus full time on developing the next generation of athletes. Thank you to everyone who was part of this incredible journey. The crystals in the photo mark the milestones, but the relationships are what made them meaningful

Pretty excited about this!

Phishing is a very popular technique of attackers. They trick users into entering their credentials on some fraudulent site pretending to be a corporate login page, for example to log into Microsoft Entra ID.
