​As described by Microsoft, “MVPs are passionate about Microsoft technology and recognized for their exceptional technical expertise, their willingness to help others make the most of their technology, and for making a significant and positive impact on technical communities… Of the more than 100 million social and technical community members worldwide, each year only about 3,800 are recognized as MVPs.”

Protiviti’s 3 Microsoft MVPs proudly embrace their role as SharePoint leaders and are recognized for their strong commitment to providing quality education within the SharePoint community.  Our MVPs provide free educational resources and thought leadership in the form of blog posts, webinars and speaking engagements worldwide.  In this three part series we’ll introduce you to each of our MVPs by sharing their bios, powerful thought leadership contributions and upcoming events!
