Sequins, Dinosaurs & Data: Cat Schneider on Standing Out in the Power Platform Community

In this episode of the Power Platform Podcast, Mark and Malin are joined by Microsoft MVP Cat Schneider—self-described chaos agent, community personality, and Power Platform enthusiast from Florida.

From accidentally interrupting a keynote at the Microsoft 365 Community Conference to running through events in a dinosaur costume, Cat has built a reputation for showing up in a way that’s impossible to ignore. But behind the sequins and stories is a deeply practical journey into tech.

The conversation dives into how curiosity and problem-solving can lead you into tech, the importance of mentorship, and why being memorable in the community can actually be a strength. Along the way, there are plenty of detours—Florida wildlife, hurricanes, conference outfits, and why sometimes the best way to connect with people is simply to be yourself.

If you’ve ever wondered how to break into the Power Platform space without a traditional path—or how to build a personal brand that actually sticks—this episode is for you.
