TECHNOLOGY THOUGHT LEADER & EXPERT
​
Technology is only as good as the passion we have to keep up with it. -Melanie Gass

​
Welcome! My passion for technology drives me every day. I am inspired by the incredible innovations we witness and the opportunity to help others embrace and transform their lives through technology.
Over the last 15 years, I have worked with millions around the globe as a technology consulting firm owner, author, speaker, syndicated podcast host, and corporate leader. I have empowered corporations of all sizes to revolutionize their workday and have had the privilege of assisting some of the most influential people in the world.
Whether it's providing a solution to a complex problem or answering a simple question, I am committed to understanding your challenges and guiding you through your technology journey.
ABOUT
My technology journey began in 1998 when my company encouraged me to master Microsoft products. This opportunity, combined with a series of certifications, ignited my passion for helping others embrace the technology revolution. Over the years, I founded a technology firm, trained millions, authored over 15 books available at major online retailers, and reached over 500,000 people weekly through a syndicated radio show. I traveled globally, speaking to diverse audiences and collaborating with influential business leaders. After a decade of building my business and personal brand, I felt a calling to make a broader impact. I dissolved my firm, stepped away from the public eye, and joined a tech giant.
For the past nine years, I've been at Microsoft, dedicated to helping others achieve more. I've represented the US Small Business Administration's Technology Coalition, led Microsoft's engagement in Small Business Saturday, and National Entrepreneurship Week, and spearheaded sales and marketing efforts within the Services division to support partner growth. Currently, I work within the Worldwide Customer Success team, helping customers accelerate their market transformation through developer technologies.
​
As a passion project I help others through my latest book, Transforming the Remote Work Experience available at Amazon.com and retailers globally. I also host a globally syndicated podcast, Inspirburst, to promote positivity and support others in the journey to achieve their most successful selves through major streaming platforms.
​
Personally, I enjoy golf, sailing, traveling to new places, appreciating historic locations and embracing new adventures. In the words of the Roman poet Horace, Carpe diem!
