As one of the first 500 people to ever receive a Salesforce Certification back in October 2008, I have seen Salesforce change and expand beyond my wildest expectations. Non-profits need a partner who truly understands them, and who also has a deep knowledge of Salesforce in order to provide the right solution. Time Technology has a huge amount of experience, industry knowledge, integrity and empathy, and I’m absolutely delighted to be part of the team.

Experience

I started my journey as a Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) Developer in the year 2000 and in 2008 I found Salesforce by accident. I was sent on a course that summer, which kick started a journey taking me from a Salesforce Administrator, right through to running my own Salesforce consultancy, and ultimately right to the mothership as a Salesforce employee.

With 17 years in the Salesforce ecosystem, I’ve worked with companies of all shapes and sizes, from Pre-sales, right through to end user training and everything in between. I get the most amount of joy seeing charities and non-profits getting amazing results, providing better services, and raising more money by adopting Salesforce.

Marc Benioff, CEO of Salesforce, said, “Technology when used for good can change the world, and we see examples of this every day”.

Favourite Trailhead

I love the Salesforce Organisational Alignment Module trailhead. Any organisation, no matter the size, should have something like a V2MOM. It’s a tool that gives every person, team and leader visibility of their goals and objectives, and how those feed into company strategy.
