Hi, I’m Bob Mixon – husband, father, lifelong chef, and Digital Platforms Manager.
By day, I lead digital transformation as Digital Platforms Manager at Ogletree Deakins, where I guide a global team in designing and managing enterprise solutions built on Microsoft 365, Power Platform, and Azure. My focus is on enabling intelligent automation, seamless collaboration, and secure, scalable business platforms.
At heart, I’m still an IT architect — turning complex challenges into elegant, maintainable systems using C#, PowerShell, Azure Functions, Logic Apps, and AI services. With more than 35 years in IT, including 24 years specializing in SharePoint and over a decade in Azure and AI, I’ve built a career around bridging people, process, and technology.
By night (and often on weekends), I trade architecture diagrams for cast iron pans – experimenting with family recipes passed down from my mom and grandmother, or perfecting my signature ribs on the grill.
When I’m not designing cloud solutions or cooking something new, I mentor IT teams, explore emerging AI technologies, and enjoy time with my family and grandchildren.
This blog is where I share ideas, insights, recipes, and the occasional story from the field (or the kitchen). Thanks for visiting – I hope you find something here that inspires you.
