Ever wondered what it's like to swap the sunny skies of Brazil for the emerald embrace of Ireland, all while scaling the heights of Microsoft's tech landscape? Michel Mendes, our spirited guest from Brazil, did just that. He traces his steps from SharePoint savant to a maestro of BizApps and Power Platform, with a special nod to his current passion, PowerPages. But Michel's tale isn't just about the bytes and codes; he paints a vibrant canvas of his life in Dublin, from headbanging at rock concerts to savouring craft beers at the famed Porterhouse. You'll feel the cobblestone beneath your feet as he brings the essence of Dublin – and the warmth of its pubs – to our ears.
Join us as we walk the road less travelled with Michel, discussing not only the perks of city life but also the challenging leap of resettling in an English-speaking work environment. His reflections on the linguistic gymnastics and cultural adaptability required to flourish abroad are as inspiring as they are practical. And if you're keen to know how engaging content and community spirit can earn you the coveted Microsoft MVP title, Michel's insights are a treasure trove. He shares his favourite Power Platform tools, combining advanced development with the streamlined functionality of Power Pages and Power Automate, proving that professional growth and personal reinvention go hand in hand.
