GUEST BIO 👤

"Don't say something cannot be done, or someone who doesn't know will come and do it.". This motto describes me very well. I would say because I am trying to find a path even on fields where paths shouldn't be. I'm the MVP of Data Platform (Power BI) and a co-founder of a company called DataBrothers, where I work as a Lead technical consultant. Primarily I am working with Microsoft Power Platform Technologies (Power BI, Flow / Automate, and PowerApps) and am the Author of the Czech PBI blog Jakna Power BI (translated "How to Power BI").
