I just got my email that I’ve been awarded an MVP award again this year for SharePoint server.  This is my third year and I am still as EXCITED and HONORED as I was my first year.  Being an MVP this past year while SharePoint 2010 was being completed and released has been incredible.  I often wonder how I learned as much as I did before I gained access to the resources and contacts available to me as an MVP.

But the bottom line is still that I wouldn’t be an MVP if it weren’t for all of you out there in the community.  My thanks to all those who have asked me questions this past year and to those who came to listen to me at conferences.  Without you I wouldn't have received this award.  I hope to continue to live up to the honor and hope that I never get complacent about what its really about: Helping to support the SharePoint community.

In a post entitled “Time for a Change” a few weeks ago I announced my decision to leave Mindsharp and return to the world of fulltime consulting.  At the time I hadn’t decided whether that meant a fulltime position with a consulting firm or restarting my own company called Don’t Pa..Panic Software.  I’ve spent the last month talking to a number of companies and I’m happy to announce that I have accepted a position as a Senior SharePoint Architect/Lead Consultant with ShareSquared.

ShareSquared

I’m really excited to be joining the ShareSquared staff.  It means that I’ll continue to work with some of the best and brightest talent in the SharePoint community, just like I did at Mindsharp.  I’ll be working with people like fellow SharePoint MVPs Maurice Prather and Gary Lapointe and other SharePoint notables like Keith Richie. I’m honored to be invited to join such a talent pool. So, if you are you looking for a team of SharePoint experts, then ShareSquared can help ... drop us a note.
