What do you do at Voyado?

My role at Voyado is AI Architect. What I do is help teams with planning and executing on delivering customer value using AI. Whether it's creating new features, or simplifying existing flows. I also spend some time thinking of what Voyado might look like in the future 🔮

You got recognized by Microsoft as an MVP. What does this recognition mean to the community, and you personally?

I think it is great that the community work we do here in Östergötland gets recognized. For me personally, it means very much. All those late nights and weekend hours, preparing talks and planning, now got recognition. It also makes it easier for me to get closer to the product groups inside Microsoft, and get privy to product news before public release. Most valuable perhaps, is that it helps open some doors, making it easier for me to spread my knowledge and passion in the tech community!

What recommendations do you have for people who are just starting out their contributions to the community?
Find your clique and dive in! There are multiple ways to find a community/context when it comes to IT. Make sure you get involved with something that stimulates you, that you feel passionate about and that gives you joy. And remember to have fun! If you are not having fun, change your focus area, move to a different clique, do something new.

And one last thing, if you only could eat one meal for the rest of your life - what would it be?
Roast chicken and potatoes. I love sushi or a good burger, but seriously doubt I could eat that every meal without going nuts 😄
