About Matthew

I am a Microsoft MVP in PowerShell and an Automation Architect with over 20 years in IT. I design and build automation platforms used by enterprise teams to reduce manual work, improve reliability, and scale operations. I am also the author of Practical Automation with PowerShell and share weekly insights through PowerShell Weekly.

What makes my approach different is that I focus on how to think through automation, not just how to write code. I have seen countless automations fail because the process was never clearly defined. My courses are built on real-world experience helping teams turn messy, manual work into reliable systems.
