What I do

Six areas of focus.

Deep expertise across the Salesforce ecosystem and modern automation tooling. I build systems that are maintainable, documented, and owned by the business.

Salesforce Engineering

Custom Apex, Lightning Web Components, and Flows beyond standard configuration. Live dashboards, automated handoffs, data quality rules, and reporting that answers real business questions.

Apex LWC Flows SOQL

Workflow Automation

n8n orchestration connecting CRMs, finance tools, databases, and communication platforms into reliable pipelines with logging, retries, and error handling built in from day one.

AI & RAG Systems

AI agents grounded in proprietary documentation. Semantic search, vector embeddings, and local LLM deployment for sensitive workloads. Faster answers without hallucinated policy.

RAG LLMs Embeddings Local AI

Finance & CRM Integration

CRM-to-finance sync, automated invoice generation, payment status tracking, and reconciliation reporting. Clean data handoffs between Sales and Finance without manual relay.

Document Intelligence

LLM-powered extraction from PDFs, invoices, and contracts. Structured data output without retyping. Review queues for exceptions. Clean integration into databases and CRMs.
