My name is Ronni Pedersen and I’m from Denmark.
I have been working as an IT Professional since 1997 and working with Microsoft technologies ever since. I’m currently a Senior Infrastructure Architect working at a consulting firm located in Denmark. My primary focus is to design and deploy enterprise infrastructure, Management and Deployment solutions, based on technologies like System Center Configuration Manager, Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) and Active Directory Domain Services (ADDS).

I’m selected as part of the Microsoft Partner Experts Team (PET) in Denmark. The focus of this Team is deployment of Windows Clients and Microsoft Office at Enterprise and Upper mid-marked Customers. The goal of this User Group is to share information with other team members regarding deployment and configuration of Windows clients and Microsoft Office.

My role in this team is to work close with Microsoft Denmark and other team members on creating a great community where IT Pro’s can connect and get help or advices with Microsoft related technologies.
