I’m a VMware vExpert 2016

vExpert (1)

Back in 2012, I created this blog. I didn’t stick with the specific goals..it was and is just my notebook which helps to organize my own knowledge. I’ve had my ups and downs, but I’ve always managed to pull myself together and I don’t think I could imagine what I have now.

I was awarded as Microsoft MVP after 2 years of hard-working on forums, WIKIs, blogs, real life.. etc. It was my first award and each year I’m trying to keep one by doing my best.

I’d like to thank once again Microsoft staff and other MVPs who found me, noticed and decided to open doors to MVPs family. I really appreciate it. It’s a great honor to be part of it.
You guys are awesome. I learned from you there are no any limits, you should never give up and keep always moving forward…no matter what. I’m trying to do that in the right way.

And last Friday I was selected as VMware vExpert 2016. I’m so excited, I’m speechless. It’s priceless to me. VMware has the most advanced technologies in virtualization and clouds. The winning a such recognition is a result of long work from 2012 till now.

Being the holder of both Microsoft MVP and VMware vExpert means to have a heavier responsibility , endless self-development and more valuable contribution than what I had before. Well, this is all too much to deal with at once :).

vExpert can be compared to MVP. There are almost the similar benefits:

Award certificate and gift
vExpert logo to display on website or email signature
Access to a private vExpert community
Free subscription to conference session materials on VMworld.com
Access to exclusive online events and other opportunities to participate in activities
…..and etc

All of these benefits will be unclosed after VMworld 2016 (August 28 – September 1).

I think it would be a great time to level up content/blog (design?). Anyway, it’s going to be an interesting part of the year!

Until then,
have a great weekdays!
