## SPEAKER BIO
Gregor wrote about himself:
I am a passionate developer with 20+ years experience, mainly with Microsoft Technologies and background is a .NET developer since the start of .NET. – I was one of the first 50 people in the world to become an MCSD developer back in the day.
I currently work for Sword as the Head of Development Services where I manage a team of full-time employees who are mostly remote workers all over the UK.
My main passions are around Azure and DevOps, in my current role I am doing a lot of Azure and absolutely loving the hands-on time I get with Azure. In the past, I have used plain old MSBuild, TeamCity, Cake, and Octopus Deploy and now I focus primarily on Azure DevOps (formerly known as Visual Studio Team Services VSTS).
DevOps and Azure are my focus of late and they are my main passion apart from learning new technologies.
I went from no knowledge of Azure to an Azure MVP in under 2 years and along the journey passed 9 exams, I learn new skills quickly and I keep on top of a number of technologies and a life learner.
