I am a senior Salesforce Solution Architect with 11+ years designing and delivering multi-cloud CRM solutions across Sales, Service, Experience, and Marketing Clouds. I build scalable customizations using Apex, Lightning Web Components, Visualforce, and declarative automation to optimize business processes and drive user adoption.
My experience spans integrations with REST/SOAP APIs, MuleSoft, Workato, and ERP systems, as well as data migration and governor-limits-aware development. I lead cross-functional teams, establish CI/CD and platform governance, and mentor developers to maintain high-quality, maintainable codebases.
I hold multiple Salesforce certifications including Platform Developer II, Application Architect, and Sales Cloud Consultant, and I seek to apply my technical leadership and delivery expertise to complex enterprise transformations that require robust architecture, strong stakeholder alignment, and measurable business impact.
