I am a consultant, developer and architect splitting my time between in Norway and the US specializing in Salesforce.com development, administration and integration and was a Salesforce Developer World Championship Finalist. I currently hold 12 Salesforce.com certifications that can be verified via their certification verification tool online. I have also completed my MBA with UCLA Anderson focusing on marketing, finance and IT/operations management.
I have over 14 years of salesforce.com development and architecture experience in advanced administration, cross-platform integration, web integration and workflow process design. I have also designed and built integrations between salesforce.com and PHP websites, Mailchimp, Pardot and Marketo utilizing native integration tools as well as custom-development with the Salesforce.com SOAP and REST APIs.
Unlike other "IT-only" contractors who do not have an MBA or a business background, I'm well equipped to advise your business or project on process engineering/design and business strategy. During my last 3 years at my previous employer, I used both my technical skills and business knowledge to build a new platform and business division adding 20% to annual revenues.
As you can see from my profile, I have tested in either the top 10%-20% for Salesforce.com, PHP and business strategy, marketing and management.
