Session Abstract

Alright, so this session is basically everything I wish someone had told me before I shipped solutions I'm not proud of. We're going to talk about the real stuff , the decisions that felt totally fine at the time and then completely fell apart in production. Skipping ALM because "it's just a small project." Picking the wrong connector and only finding out it's a problem six months later. Building components that made sense to me but nobody else could maintain or understand. I've made these mistakes. I've learned from them the hard way. And that's exactly what this session is about. We'll go through ALM, not the Microsoft docs version, but how to actually think about environments, pipelines, and source control in a way that makes your life easier, not harder. We'll talk about connectors, when standard is fine, when you need premium, and how that one choice can haunt your whole solution. And we'll get into components ,what reusable actually means, how to structure them so they scale, and why copy-pasting across 40 apps is not a strategy. If you build on Power Platform , whether you're just getting started or you've been doing this for years ,you're going to leave with things you can use immediately. Let's get into it.

I’m drawn to complexity, I love untangling it and turning it into something clear, structured, and effortless. Through smart automation and Power Platform solutions, I build systems that just flow. I love connecting with people, exchanging knowledge, and staying open to new ideas and growth.
