This is my 14th year in IT. During that time, I was working with different companies. I was working on different positions. I was working with many different technologies. But there was one thing that never changed. It’s my love for Microsoft Active Directory. From the day I heard about Active Directory and its capabilities, I spent countless hours reading, listing about it. I spent countless hours with my labs testing its strength. I also learned from my mistakes.  When I was working with different customers I noticed that even though people know about Active Directory, they do not use most of its features to protect, improve efficiency or to improve management of their identity infrastructure. This is due to two main reasons. First is, they think the technology that involves is too “complex”. Second is, they believe they do not have enough “skills” to do it.

In 2010, my website rebeladmin.com was born. The idea of it was to explain Active Directory’s capabilities, features, in simplified way and provide Step-by-Step guides to implement and configure Active Directory related services and features. This is a non-profit website and has more than 400 articles so far. As result of this community contribution I was awarded with Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) award. It started a new era of my life and I was able to bring my message to communities in strong way.

Today I reached another milestone in my life. Today is the day my first book going public. “Mastering Active Directory” is the fruit of my knowledge and experience about Active Directory.
