Microsoft MVP Award: 5th Times in Row

I am very happy to inform you all that I have been awarded Microsoft Most Valuable Award five times in a row. First time, I got this award on 1st July 2010 and getting it consecutively since then.

The novelty of receiving the famous “Congratulations! We are pleased to present you with the 2014 Microsoft MVP Award! ” email may fade by the fifth time, but the feeling of being honored by the Award, being humbled by the amazing fellow MVPs I can be associated with, and the whole-day grin on my face does not fade at all.

Starting my fifth MVP year feels special. Five years is a lot! I am humbled and honored to have been presented with this award. There are too many people for me to name here to whom I owe a debt of thanks & appreciation, so I will simply say thank you to the SharePoint Community as a whole. I have to give the credit for this award to the people who have given them most, and that is my amazingly supportive parents, without-whom I would not be able to do any of the community work that I do.

Grateful to Microsoft and to everyone that have been supporting me in my professional and personal growth. THANK YOU!
