I guide discovery, architecture, and implementation for Education Cloud engagements at TELUS Digital, a Salesforce Summit Partner. My work spans the full student lifecycle including admissions, advising, and student success, with a practitioner foundation built across nearly a decade at higher education institutions.

Outside of client delivery, I build governance infrastructure for Salesforce development teams: tools, protocols, and reference architectures that enforce deployment integrity as a system property rather than a process hope.

Core Focus Areas:

  • Education Cloud architecture and student lifecycle design
  • Governance-driven DevOps and deployment integrity
  • Resilient multi-cloud systems (Salesforce + AWS)

Engineering Highlights

Runtime Build & TestDocs Generation & SyncDocs Governance & BuildPages DeploymentDocs Bot

An Open Source (Apache 2.0) Standard for Salesforce DevOps that separates policy enforcement from execution.

Tip

Check out the Overview!

  • Governance Control Plane: Designed a system intended to enforce deployment outcomes independently of tooling.
  • Policy & Contract Model: Defined a model that normalizes results across execution engines such as native sf CLI and sfdx-hardis.
  • Pluggable Adapter Pattern: Architected a pattern allowing teams to swap execution engines without breaking compliance guarantees.
  • Deployment Governance: Formalized concepts including policy resolution, validation gates, and pass or fail arbitration.
  • Tooling Strategy: Positioned mature tools like sfdx-hardis as first-class execution adapters, not competitors.
  • System Documentation: Authored protocol-level architecture documentation treating governance as a system concern rather than a pipeline feature.

Verify PrimitivesIntegration TestsVerify GovernancePlugin Whitelist TestsVerify Auth Contract

Production-grade execution infrastructure designed to provide the foundational layer for GlassOps governance.

  • Verified Primitives: Engineered comprehensive test coverage ensuring consistent behavior across execution contexts.
  • Governed Authentication: Implemented authentication contracts supporting JWT, OAuth, and SFDX Auth URL patterns.
  • Plugin Security: Designed whitelist enforcement preventing unauthorized Salesforce CLI extensions.
  • Governed Execution: Enforces strict timeouts, validates inputs, and provides structured error handling with clear failure modes.
  • Infrastructure Guarantees: Established the foundational layer ensuring deployment outcomes are reproducible and auditable.

Note

Powers the GlassOps Governance Protocol execution layer. Governance guarantees require infrastructure guarantees.

Tip

View the full documentation in the Governance Hub for the best reading experience.

  • The Architecture: Designed a multi-cloud system using Salesforce LWR, GraphQL, Apex, and AWS Lambda.
  • The Governance: Architected contract-first APIs (OpenAPI 3.0) and "Chaos Engineering" patterns to validate resilience against third-party failures.
  • The Ops: Zero-touch CI/CD with automated quality gates.
  • Documentation: Read my Architectural Decision Records (ADRs) to see how I handle security, FinOps, and resilience trade-offs.

  • Secure Secret Injection: Implemented GitHub Secrets to separate public source code from private contact information in compiled artifacts.
  • High-Fidelity Compilation: Orchestrated PDF generation using Pandoc and XeLaTeX.
