Biggest one I hit was Microsoft MVP in AI, which I'm still wowed about. There's other ones too like agreeing to my first book and my first online course (though that last one isn't in contract yet)
freaking awesome you’re an MVP!!
That’s amazing!!!! Congrats 🎉
How do you become a Microsoft mvp? I’m setting that as a goal.
MVP is a category that Microsoft keeps intentionally a bit vague about what is and isn't a MVP, but in a nutshell to be an MVP you must:
I was really good at .NET 10 or 15 years ago when I first heard about the MVP program, and I thought "Hey, I've been doing this since the beginning and I'm really good, I should be an MVP", but it's more about community activity, community leadership, mentoring, and making an impact in a focused area, which I didn't start doing until around 2019 or so. 2020 I maybe could have made MVP, but I didn't truly step up my contributions to higher levels until 2022 or so, which is when I got that nomination.
The program is also reviewed every year, so I'll be up for renewal next summer while most of my friends in the MVP program will find out on July 6th if they were renewed for another year.
Hope this helps!
oh wow this is really useful! you should make this into a post!
Getting netmouth released as part of the Babylon project, and in doing so being able to further articulate the vision of a new kind of FOSS phone / home automation system as expressed in Coventry. This is one the first things I had been able to accomplish since learning to adapt to loss of eyesight.
Doing this now professionally for 25 years since I was a teen in college!
That's amazing!
