Hello from Perth, Australia

Solutions, lessons and the odd deep dive.

A little about me

Shane Bartholomeusz

G’day, I’m an IT Solution Architect based in Perth, Australia specialising in the Microsoft technology stack, including Azure Cloud, .NET, Dynamics 365, general web development technologies, etc.

This blog is my place to share my thoughts, helpful solutions and just random nerdy stuff. I’ve found that creating and talking about technology is a great way to stay curious, humble, and very, very busy. There is always something new and exciting to explore in the tech world.

Stay curious my friends!
