He has experience with various operating systems and has been working with PowerShell for the past 10 years. He became interested in this scripting language as a means of minimizing workload by automating several steps and therefore saving time. His job involves several changes throughout the year; adding or changing only a couple of aspects within a PowerShell script frees up time for other tasks he faces as a System Administrator.
