I build AI-enabled Salesforce and cloud systems that streamline operations and drive growth.

I build AI-enabled Salesforce and cloud systems that streamline operations, improve data integrity, and support business growth across renewable energy, SaaS, and consulting.

At Dynamic EcoHome, I architected automated data pipelines, validation frameworks, executive KPI dashboards, and custom Salesforce architecture for fulfillment, customer service, and analytics. I also led Salesforce modernization, platform training, and AI-assisted development practices that improved release cycles and onboarding.

Through VioletNight LLC, I advise small businesses on AI-enabled development workflows, cloud integrations across Salesforce and Slack, systems infrastructure, technical documentation, and user enablement.

My background also includes leading residential solar and energy-storage operations, B2B and B2C client lifecycles, business development strategy, fleet operations, vendor partnerships, and revenue-focused process improvement.
