Hi - I am Sharon.
Champs!

If there is someone else I need to reach out to please point me in the right direction. If not please go to board in which we were advised to post questions in and please respond.

Hi everyone,
My name is Oluwayinka from Nigeria. I'm currently working a Business Development Manager for an N.G.O for the elderly in Lagos, Nigeria. I plan on breaking in Tech this year and this Low-code platform by Microsoft is a great start for me.
I'd like to connect with fellow Champs from around the world to make this transition easy for me.
Hello @BCBuizer @Sonnyinseattle @AhmedSalih @BenClistBC2 @remidyon
Please I would like to know if our challenge will still be graded. I logged into the website and received an error message saying the environment was not found. I submitted my challenge on time and I yet to receive any update. It has been almost 6 days now, I saw others had theirs graded within 2 days. Please let us know what is going on.
Hello, everyone!
I'm Ahmed Salih, a Manager of Software Development at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. I'm honored to be a Microsoft MVP in Business Applications and a Microsoft Power UP program instructor. I'm also an active Super User within the Microsoft Power Platform Community forums, where I engage with and learn from a vibrant community of professionals like you.
With over 16 years of experience in VB.Net software development, I started working with Power Apps in 2020 and have since developed a profound knowledge of Power Apps Development, Microsoft Power Automate, and Microsoft Power BI. These skills, honed through my work with high-growth organizations, enable me to deliver reliable, effective, end-to-end business solutions. I'm excited to share my experience and insights with all of you in the Microsoft Power UP program. Let's work together to maximize the power of AI-Enabled, Microsoft Power Platform, and make the most of our learning journey!

Kia ora koutou (Hi everyone),
My name is Ben, and I'm based in Queenstown, New Zealand.
I run a business called BC2, and we specialise in providing Power Platform and Dynamics 365 services to businesses. I'm also a Microsoft Certified Trainer.
My main specialities are Dataverse, Model Driven Apps, Power Automate and Power BI. I stumbled around the rest (Canvas apps), as best I can!
I've been working with the platform for just over 5 years now and I really do love it. I've been a Champ on the Power Up program for a few months now, and you'll often find me leading live sessions for the AMER timezone, usually alongside the wonderful Christina Wheeler.
Ngā mihi,
Ben
Hey everyone,
My name is Rémi Dyon, I'm a senior technical specialist on the power platform. I am French but I am based in Atlanta, GA (Bonjour à toutes et tous les francophones!👋).
I've been volunteering with the PowerUp program for almost a year. You will usually see me present at weekly sessions, on the community forum or grading the Power App challenge. 💡
I love helping people learn new technology and I think PowerUp is a great program for that🧑💻
My favorite Power Platform product is Copilot Studio 🤩
Hi Everyone,
My name is Barend and I'm one of the Power Up program champions, happily volunteering to support you in your journey.
A few things about myself:
- Up until the beginning of 2021 I had never even heard of the Power Platform, but when starting a new job we required tooling to manage the complexity, which is where I started my journey as a citizen developer, turning professional Power Platform developer since the end of 2022, mainly through self studies.
- My main areas of knowledge are about Power Apps and Power Automate.
- To get my quickest reply to any of your questions, please @ mention me in your posts. As mentioned above I do have a job besides supporting the program, so there may be a delay, but I'll definitely get back to you if someone else hasn't already.
