This year, I was once again named a Cisco Champion!
In 2023, I’ve been busy writing articles now and then on topics I found interesting, and I believe many readers have been enjoying them as well, based on increased traffic in terms of visitors. As a testimony to my contributions to the networking community in the form of articles on this website, I have been named a Cisco Champion 2024.
This is the second year in a row I’ve been invited to (stay with) the Cisco Champions group, and it has been both fun and useful to have the chance to talk to like-minded individuals about the latest in networking.
For a quick pitch on what the Cisco Champion Program covers, see the video below.
Who are Cisco Champions? They are passionate about technology. They enjoy sharing their knowledge and thoughts with the technical community and with Cisco. They are ready to take the next step as an influencer and expert in their field.
