I recently set out to give one of my Copilot Studio agents its own identity — something I could @mention in Teams and Word, like a proper digital colleague.

In this post and video, I explore the full no-code to pro-code spectrum and share why I think low-code isn’t dead — it’s evolving. Is Low Code Actually Dead? There’s a provocative question doing the rounds in the developer community right now: Is low code dead? ...

I’m launching a brand new community dedicated to learning Cloud Flow Automation, Custom Agents, and AI — all through the Low Code Power Platform. Whether you’re just getting started or you’re an experienced maker, there’s something here for everyone. Why I’m Building This Community I love sharing my knowledge and learning from others and I have spent a lot of time helping folk like you on forums, producing videos on my YouTube and as clients as a Cloud Solution Architect for Microsoft. ...
