I’m a customer-facing solutions engineer. I spent the last seven-plus years at Conga, a top-two Salesforce ISV, in the space between enterprise customers and the product: cross-vertical, with the most depth in financial services, tech, and health and life sciences.
I run the whole customer lifecycle, from commercial and technical discovery through solution design, the demo or proof of concept, and security review. The mandate, as I see it, is that the solution works in production, not just on a whiteboard. My focus extends well beyond signature. On a practical level, I own the customer’s usage curve. On a human level, I care whether they’re glad they bought it.
For the last year I’ve also been building full-stack products solo, directing frontier coding agents through the whole dev cycle: architecture, API and data design, code review, and cloud deployment. They’re on the Portfolio page.
Before Conga, I spent six years at S&P Global, owning roadmap, pricing, and go-to-market for enterprise API and data-feed products, then managing a portfolio of investment banking and private equity clients. I hold a B.S. Cum Laude in Business Administration from USC Marshall.
