After the period of knowledge acquirement and technologies introduction, I chose to follow a Microsoft based path complemented with certifications. The main areas at the time being Windows Servers and Desktop Infrastructures for which I certified for. For a few months I accompanied senior consultants for Microsoft and especially for System Center Configuration Manager, being responsible for delivering a wide range of technical tasks. Afterwards I started to be responsible for designing and delivering technical projects, with increasing complexity over time.
