About me

I’ve always been fascinated by how technology can make our lives easier, and over the years that curiosity turned into a career in AI. I started my career as a project manager, and besides my technical skills, I bring strong project management expertise that complements everything I do. I’ve worked with Fortune 500 companies like Caterpillar, PMI, and Capital One.

I’m an AI Solutions Architect and a Microsoft MVP, and I spend my days building AI agents with Microsoft Copilot Studio, M365 Copilot, and other tools to help teams get more done, faster and smarter. I love creating solutions that make complex data easy to act on, automate repetitive tasks, and give people insights without needing to be tech experts.

Teaching is another passion of mine. I’ve taught Power Apps for project managers to Master of Project Management students at George Washington University, helping future leaders embrace technology in their workflows. I’m also deeply involved in the community, mentoring, running workshops, speaking at events, and sharing what I’ve learned so others can explore AI confidently and responsibly.

You can watch my videos in the Tutorial tab, see my past events in the Events tab, or feel free to contact me for speaker sessions, workshops, or podcasts.

At the end of the day, I’m all about turning ideas into solutions, helping people work smarter, and showing that AI isn’t just for techies—it’s for anyone curious enough to try.

Community Feedback

  • “Rafsan reached out when I was active in the community and encouraged me to turn an idea into the Power Platform User Group in Turkey. Our brainstorming gave me the confidence and structure to launch, and he inspired me every step of the way then joined as our third guest speaker. The group is now building real momentum and bringing practitioners together across the country.”

  • "Rafsan recently presented to our internal user group, bringing clarity to the Microsoft Copilot ecosystem by connecting the dots across architecture, governance, and responsible deployment. His deep expertise in Microsoft 365 Copilot helped our team understand how features like Search, Chat, and Agents work together. The session delivered practical prompts, real-world scenarios, and actionable next steps we can immediately apply. It provided the foundation we needed to confidently begin using the product."
