Nonprofit & social-sector Salesforce

Your organization has Salesforce.
You suspect it could do more.
Let's find out.

If you've been making do (spreadsheets, manual workarounds, an org that never quite matched how you operate), you're not failing. You're in optimization mode, and you deserve a thinking partner who'll name the real problem, not just the loudest symptom.

I prioritize your long-term independence over a quick upsell. When the engagement wraps, you own the solution.

Sound familiar?

The workarounds are adding up, and you're tired of being the accidental Salesforce person on top of your real job.

On the surface: manual entry between systems, reports that don't match how leadership decides, data living in spreadsheets because the CRM never quite caught up.

Underneath: pragmatic frustration, a little skepticism of "another consultant," and a fear of being sold an expensive product, a long contract, and a six-month timeline when what you have mostly works.

What I believe: mission-driven teams deserve the same clarity enterprises get, without enterprise overhead, handoffs, or dependency on someone else's roadmap.

How I work

Four promises, the same on every engagement.

Honest diagnosis

I find the real problem, not just the presenting symptom, including saying when you don't need what you think you need.

Explore situations I help with

Creative, cost-conscious solutions

No product kickbacks. I look for the best-fit path, including native Salesforce and low- or no-cost options where they make sense.

See tools built from real problems

Senior expertise, no overhead

You get the same experienced consultant from discovery through delivery: no layers, no junior handoffs.

How working together works

Built for your independence

Knowledge transfer is part of the work. The goal is for your team to stand on its own, not to keep you on a hook.

Engagement model
From first conversation to you owning it

A simple arc: arrive, expand what's possible, own the solution.

See how working together works
  1. 1

    Discovery

    A real conversation: questions first. You should leave with clarity even before anything is scoped.

  2. 2

    Diagnosis

    I separate symptom from root cause and outline honest options, including simpler paths.

  3. 3

    Design

    A creative plan that fits your budget and timeline, not a generic playbook.

  4. 4

    Build

    Implementation, automation, integrations: whatever the plan requires, with you in the loop.

  5. 5

    Knowledge transfer

    Documentation and coaching so your team can run what I built. Independence is success.

Open source & tools

Creative solutions I didn't gate behind a license.

When a client requirement has no clean off-the-shelf solution, I built one. And when it can benefit the whole community, I share it.

Lightning Flow iFrame

WordPress plugin + patterns for embedding Flows without the usual iFrame pain.

The right leverage changes everything.

Let's figure out what's really going on.

No pitch, just a conversation. If there's a simpler path or an honest "not us," you'll hear it.
