Hi. I’m Jeff.
How can I help?
I have twenty-plus years of experience helping organizations realize digital transformation.
Recently, I’ve noticed that my clients increasingly want to take more work “in house,” investing more in their own teams and less on big consulting firms. Recognizing this trend, I’m here to give my clients the help they need to upskill and become internal centres of excellence.
As an independent professional, I slot rapidly into teams implementing complex SharePoint migrations and upgrades, Copilot readiness and strategy plans and Power Platform solutions.
Where do you want to start?
Burning questions
What can you do for me and my team?
I am an experienced solution architect, developer, trainer, consultant and project manager. I can slot seamlessly into your multidisciplinary team (as leader, if needed) on a project basis, to help plan, implement, and train on your SharePoint, Omnia or other intranet (upgrade/migration or greenfield). I have architected and delivered automation solutions on many platforms and now focus on Microsoft Power Platform. I also provide training and technical-writing services.
What does your typical engagement look like?
I drop into my client’s team as anything from solution architect/lead consultant, on down to developer or trainer. Phases may include:
- business analysis and planning (workshops, interviews, explorations to elicit and formalize requirements)
- design (assembling and configuring out-of-box features alongside custom add-ins) to build a blueprint of the digital workspace)
- implementation (iterative, rapid deployment of the solution design)
- training, adoption and handover (making sure every user, and the IT team, are adept at using and managing both the out-of-box software and any customizations)
Why don’t I just hire a consulting firm that has all the roles I need?
Big consulting firms are trying to get as many consultants on the billing clock as possible—but organizations these days are trying to do more with less. One of my tasks is to slot in temporarily, only until your internal team is a centre of excellence in the digital tools such as SharePoint, Copilot and Power Platform. Then I’m out. With my help, you take the expertise in house.
So how do we get started?

Testimonials
“Jeff’s secret weapon is his ability to navigate, anticipate and provide great service to the client. Knowing the product is half the battle. Being able to get from start to finish, do and say the right things and come out with a happy client is where Jeff really shines. As a Practice Lead for our SharePoint team Jeff’s vision was forward thinking, strong and precise.”
— Sarah Wilson, Chief Technology Officer
“[Jeff is] technically solid and appreciates the reasons for doing things right versus cheaping-out and having to do them over at a greater expense in time and money. He’s not content to just “do things as they’ve always been done around here” – he’s always looking for opportunities to increase his abilities and those around him to achieve higher goals. He’s well-read across a number of fields – not just technical; this gives him a depth of character that’s not often found in IT.”
— Chris Chapman, Owner, Derailleur Consulting
