Hi there,

 

Starting my ServiceNow journey back in 2016, I was overwhelmed by the ServiceNow community. Overwhelmed by its knowledge sharing, the amount of (free) information and documentation out there, and quickly discovering how helpful people in the ServiceNow eco-system are in general. This triggered me to start contributing myself back in 2019. Contributing by answering questions, writing articles, etcetera. I thought this could be fun, working on your own knowledge and skill, testing your own knowledge and skill, and simply giving back.

Now a few years later, the contributing got a bit out of control! Having shared/participated in more than 350 Articles, Blogs, Videos, Podcasts, Share projects, etcetera and still going strong.
