Bio
Erwin van Hunen [MCM, MVP]
Work ethic is something that defines Sari. She works hard. Harder than most other people and rarely have I seen someone so dedicated to her work. We've had our share of discussions and talks, and Sari manages to carefully pinpoint complexities and translates them to understandable descriptions. With Sari you get a level of quality on board that you don't encounter too often anymore.
Henrik Blåfield
I had the honor to work with Sari as part of the Valo software development team. She is extremely talented both in technical understanding of everything related to Microsoft as well as software development, but also has a remarkable way of being able to discuss the same things with non-technical background. On top of that she is an excellent organizer and team player, and I would definitely recommend her for any position going forward!

Oct 2019 - May 2021
As the Product Owner for Valo Intranet, Valo Extranet and Valo Entrance I guided my teams in development of the products. I gathered the feedback and feature suggestions from the Valo partners, scanned the ever-changing digital world and modified the product roadmaps according to that information. I communicated about the news and changes in our products to the partners with blogs, webinars and news posts.

Customer coordinator, O365 Artist & Senior Consultant

May 2015 - Oct 2019
I started at Blue Meteorite as a customer coordinator to our Office 365 and SharePoint on-prem customers. In addition, I had the joy of working in our service desk team as well as a consultant and O365 Artist. As a customer coordinator, I learned how to explain technical jargon to non-technical customers and how to gently push the maintenance customers towards updating their environments. As a O365 Artist I expanded my training experience and skills and learned how to turn my wide knowledge of O356 services into solutions that fulfilled the customer needs. I also hosted the O365 Keep on Track webinars in collaboration with my colleague. From January 2017 onwards, I was working as a part of a small, self-leading team of 4 people, whose main goal was to improve the customer delivery process of our Valo Intranet products. We reached our goals each quartal and improved the profitability of our delivery projects significantly. During the projects we delivered, I learned the installation process, the role of project manager, and continued to develop my training and consulting skills. I also took the responsibility of sharing the knowledge about Valo release updates internally to our consultancy business to streamline the update process.
