Hey, I’m Damien β€” aka DamoBird365 πŸ‘‹

I’m a Cloud Solution Architect at Microsoft based in Aberdeen, Scotland, specialising in Agentic AI, Power Platform, Microsoft 365 Copilot, and Azure AI. I help enterprise customers transform their businesses through automation and intelligent solutions across the no-code to pro-code spectrum.

I’ve been working in ICT since 2001 β€” from leading SharePoint and Microsoft Teams rollouts to delivering AI-driven automation solutions across sectors. Power Automate is where I like to be the most.


My Health Journey

In April 2020, while out cycling alone, I suffered a sudden cardiac arrest. I’m one of the lucky ones β€” only around 1 in 10 survive a sudden cardiac arrest in the UK.

I was diagnosed with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC), a rare genetic heart condition where the heart muscle is replaced by fatty and fibrous tissue. I had an Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) fitted as my safety net, which was later replaced with a subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD) in 2023 after complications including AV Block.

That experience changed everything. I turned my passion for sports into a passion for the Power Platform community β€” and I haven’t looked back. You can read more about my journey in my personal posts:


My Career at Microsoft

As a Cloud Solution Architect, I work directly with customers to design and implement solutions using the Microsoft Power Platform, Copilot, and Azure AI. Before joining Microsoft, I spent years as an IT professional delivering SharePoint, Teams, and Microsoft 365 projects.

I’m a former Microsoft Business Applications MVP (2022) and Power Automate Super User, recognised for my community contributions through blogging, YouTube content, and public speaking.


Community Contributions

I’m passionate about giving back to the community. Whether it’s through my YouTube channel, this blog, or standing on a stage somewhere in the world β€” I love helping people learn to build smarter with automation and AI.

YouTube

My DamoBird365 YouTube channel is where I share tutorials, demos, tips, and real-world solutions for Agentic AI, Power Automate, Power Apps, Copilot Studio, LLMs, prompt engineering, Office Scripts, Graph API, and more β€” spanning the full no-code, low-code, and pro-code landscape. Subscribe if you haven’t already!

Blogging

This blog is the written companion to my videos β€” tutorials, how-tos, opinion pieces, and tips to help anyone building with AI agents, automation, and the Power Platform β€” from no-code beginners to pro-code developers.

Skool Community

In 2026, I launched the DamoBird365 Agents & Flows community on Skool β€” a free space where we exchange knowledge and best practices around Agentic AI, LLMs, prompt engineering, Power Automate flows, and Copilot solutions across the no-code to pro-code spectrum. We also run ad hoc live calls to talk through the technology together. Whether you know me from YouTube, LinkedIn, or we’re meeting for the first time β€” you’re welcome to join.


Speaking Engagements

I regularly speak at international conferences and local user groups, sharing sessions on Power Automate tips and tricks, Graph API, Office Scripts, Power Platform governance, and my personal story of how automation transformed my career after a life-changing health event.
