I am Simon Ågren, a 38-year-old from Umeå. I have two children who stay with me every other week. Known for my cheerful and easygoing nature, I bring a lot of positive energy.
I have been a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) since 2019, and I am currently on my sixth award, now in both Microsoft 365 and Security
My career began in B2B sales and retail, where I held various roles and responsibilities. Transitioning to IT, I started as a SharePoint developer, which evolved into roles as an M365 architect and advisor. In recent years, I have also focused on security.
My most recent position was as Chief Technical Architect with responsibility for Modern Work.
My wide experience helps me understand what we can do and the limits we face. The things I don’t know, I know who to ask, whether it’s colleagues or the MVP community.
I love building relationships with customers and partners. I enjoy guiding customers through their journey, helping them prioritize and move their projects forward. My goal is to support the customer’s business so they can work productively and securely, finding the right balance
In my spare time, I spend a lot of time with my children and their activities. I coach floorball and sometimes help coach football. I also compete in long drive (golf) as an amateur, training strength, power, and speed to improve. I enjoy good food, whether cooking myself or dining out.
Over the years, I have gotten to know several individuals at Onevinn and have always had a very positive impression. As I moved closer to the field of security, I felt it was time to find a context that matched my interests, and Onevinn, being one of the best in the industry, seemed like the perfect fit. We kept in touch and eventually found a role that suits me well and excites me.
As a Cloud Security Success Manager (CSSM), I will help strengthen our partnership with Microsoft and be a reliable partner to our customers on their journey. I will provide strategic support over time, ensuring we have the right people involved. Additionally, I will enhance our capabilities within Microsoft Purview and Microsoft 365.
