CAREER OVERVIEW:

My experience with Enterprise and Commercial Salesforce Lightning Experience and Electrical Engineering degree gives me the background to meet and exceed customer expectations.

I am a Salesforce Consultant with 15+ years of experience in the IT field with solution design and hands on development. I have been working with Sales, Service, and Marketing solutions on Salesforce.com for around seven years. I developed CRM functionality with Lightning UI, Apex triggers, Apex Batch, integration, Visualforce pages.

TECHNICAL SKILLS:

Custom development of Lightning pages and components via Visual Studio Code, Visualforce pages, as well as Apex triggers and Apex batch jobs. SFDC Program Management using Agile Rally, JIRA, Git, Force.com Migration Tool, Marketing Campaign/Lead Management using SilverPop, Apex Integration via Salesforce API Web Services with third party service providers such as Tableau and SAVO, SSO/SAML, and process automation via Lightning Process Builder, Apex triggers, flow, approval processes, workflow rules, HTML, CSS and Salesforce System Administration, including user roles, profiles, sales teams and account teams, data model development and UAT testing.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS:

As the Senior Consultant on the PNC Bank project, I upgraded the Development Lifecycle to run test classes to identify unit tests issues well before migration to production. I orchestrated two or more concurrent release sprints leading up to the production deployment. I instructed developers on coding best practices. In addition, I upgraded DevOps management with new analytics and activity tracking.

As a Senior Consultant at Appirio, and a Tech Lead on the Honda Customer Service project, I designed a Lightning Community solution that leveraged Lightning Components with Lightning Flows that allowed our UX team to provide excellent user experience for both laptop or mobile devices users. We were able to elegantly support both Honda and Acura customers from a single Salesforce environment even if a customer owned both brands.

As a developer at Oppenheimer Funds, I developed custom lightning components in the Sales Cloud. I refactored Contact Trigger handling to stay under the maximum soql call governor limits, as well as spearheaded implementation of new Salesforce functionality regarding Contacts with multiple accounts.

At the State of New Jersey – Medicaid, I designed and implemented a Visualforce solution for the Special Needs Trust (SNT) program on the new Salesforce Government Cloud. The account management application addressed many moving parts including the courts, the legal department, accounting department, and document warehousing, as well as trustees, attorneys, and beneficiary family members.

As a Salesforce Sales Cloud Consultant working for ProQuest, I was technical lead on SilverPop Campaign and Lead Management. Also, I implemented a Product Platform Migration Tracking Application allowing Technical Support Managers to track Product Platform Migration cases by account and by Technical Support Agent. In addition, I upgraded the Cornerstone Learning Cloud Application releases and managed the Cornerstone program in general.

As an independent Salesforce Consultant working for Deloitte, I managed a large SFDC Service Cloud project consolidating an Email to Case implementation consisting of over 100+ mailboxes to a forms-based Web to Case implementation servicing Deloitte’s employee HR queries and requests. In addition, I expanded an in-house SFDC project management application to include developer hours tracking and advanced project trend analytics. In addition, I created the SFDC Business Continuity Plan and managed the project to bring Deloitte SFDC into Deloitte Branding compliance.

As an EnablePath Solution Architect, I transformed a Salesforce red account to a 5 out of 5 CSAT customer. This turn-around was especially important as EnablePath was a new player in the NYC/NJ/PA market and needed a strong first project outcome in the Northeast market.

As the Seagate Change Management SFDC program manager, I gathered business requirements, created user stories, entered defects, and tracked project status via Agile Rally Software to ensured project alignment with business goals and objectives. My activities included Webex meetings with offshore developers and stakeholders to provide technical guidance and program status updates. Other duties included content management via SAVO, analytics via Tableau Desktop, Apex coding, data model design, UAT testing, and ANT script creation for code promotion.

As a Force.com Developer for Merck, I enhanced the Contract Management functionality by creating an Apex trigger tracking products sold vs Special Pricing Agreement terms. I also created a Visualforce page to upload opportunity products via csv files.

As a Solutions Architect for Novartis, I created a Roadmap for future client migrations and a Use Case document of a brand site to collect functional requirements for re-platforming to Force.com. Also, I managed the configuration of Single Sign-on to include Salesforce Chatter for SP initiated requests. In addition, I have designed Apex triggers and Visualforce pages implementing data import and field updates.

As a Salesforce Consultant for Sabadell United Bank, I successfully managed the upgrade from a basic Professional Edition instance to an advanced Enterprise Edition instance. The client recently purchased three separate banks in South Florida, each bank using a separate instance of Salesforce. The most advanced implementations included integration and testing with FIS Bank Core, Great Plains and Charles Schwa, a mortgage calculator implementing Sabadell lending rules for loans of varying amounts for in-state and out-of-state clients, well as loan status dashboards and reports for residential and corporate lending . I also worked closely with lending officers to align loan information entry with banking business processes.

As a consultant for Salesforce Premier Support Tier 2 Analytics, I customized and tested hundreds of customer instances, while meeting and exceeding quality goals and customer expectations. My projects

included custom objects, fields, workflow rules, analytic snapshots, validation rules, and web to x functionality.
