About Me

Jan Karel Pieterse, Excel expert

Hi, I am Jan Karel Pieterse from The Netherlands. I have been supporting Microsoft Excel users from over the world for many years, helping them with their day-to-day tasks using Microsoft Excel.

These efforts have been rewarded by Microsoft by granting me the MVP Award many times (each year starting from 2002). Worldwide, there are only about 100 Excel MVP's, so with JKP Application Development Services you are sure to get top level expertise. Get a real Excel expert to help you!

I founded JKP Application Development Services in November 2003.

As a process engineer with about 20 years of corporate experience, I have experience in business processes as well as knowledge of the systems used for those processes.
