Jaap Wesselius

Jaap Wesselius is a consultant based out of the Netherlands and working primarily on Microsoft UC related solutions, but this originally started as an Exchange consultant back in 1996 with his first Exchange 5.0 deployment.

Jaap worked as a Microsoft employee from 1997 to 2006, both in Premier Support and in Consulting Services (MCS) where he learned Microsoft Exchange inside out. In 2006 Jaap became an independant consultant, working for customers and for the (Exchange) community, resulting in an MVP award in 2007. Because of this community activity Jaap was re-awarded every year.

Over the years the UC world has shifted so Jaap also works with Lync Server and the last year with cloud services, including Office 365.

Besides consulting Jaap is an author and has written several books on Exchange. He is also a frequent speaker at major events like Microsoft TechEd, the Microsoft Exchange Conference or IT/Dev Connections. You can follow Jaap on twitter via @jaapwess, or follow his blog at www.jaapwesselius.com
