Actions
I'm a Partner Product Success director at Salesforce, the world's #1 AI, Data and CRM company. In my current role, I help increase partner sourced/influenced ACV by engaging, enabling and supporting partner technologists in technical pre-sales, solution architecture and demand gen activities. I create and deliver enablement content for events such as Webinars, Events, Demos, Workshops, and Product Summits for all MuleSoft products including Anypoint Platform, Composer, RPA, and Salesforce Flow. I run partner advisory board meetings and deliver in person workshops and gather the voice of the partner to pass it to our product team and enable New Product Introductions (NPIs) for our products. I participate in cadence meetings with Partner Account, Sales and practice Delivery teams to align on gaps, needs, and planning of Capacity and Capability of the Partner Ecosystem, with specific insights on key partners. I'm an avid community manager and lead the Boston Mulesoft technical User group, engaging with various talks

The Digital Diplomacy: Using AI Agents to Redefine Enterprise Integration Strategy
or decades, organizations have viewed legacy systems as brittle technical debt. Traditional RPA (Robotic Process Automation) offered a temporary band-aid, but as enterprises shift toward multi-cloud architectures, brittle scripts are no longer enough. The next frontier of AI-driven automation isn't about mimicking clicks; it’s about semantic translation.
This session will introduce the concept of "Digital Diplomacy," a revolutionary AI Integration Strategy where autonomous Agents bridge the $1.7 trillion gap between legacy infrastructure and modern cloud platforms. Drawing on my real-world experiences scaling tools like MuleSoft and Salesforce Agentforce across global networks, we will explore how machine learning can dynamically map legacy business logic, generate cloud-native APIs, and safely unlock decades-old data without disrupting core operations. Attendees will learn how to architect Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) integration pipelines, moving integrations from deterministic code to dynamic, intelligent workflows.
From Legacy to LLMs: Empowering 15,000 Developers to Build Vertical-Specific AI Agents
I fully believe that the true power of Generative AI isn't unlocked by centralized data science teams; it's unlocked when thousands of distributed developers are empowered to build niche, use-case-specific solutions. The big dilemma when you start though is how do you provide the frameworks, tools, and product strategy to make this happen securely at a global scale?
My session dives into the AI Product Strategy behind democratizing AI development. We will explore how providing low-code wrappers around powerful LLMs enabled a community of over 15,000 developers across 40 countries to build vertical-specific AI agents. We will unpack the tooling required to bridge the gap between complex legacy systems (like on-premise EHRs) and modern Generative AI interfaces. Attendees will learn the best practices for building an internal "Agent Ecosystem," measuring developer adoption, and ensuring that grassroots AI innovations align with enterprise security standards.
The Agentic Era: Scaling AI Agents Globally with Ethics, Governance, and HITL
As organizations rush to deploy autonomous Agents across their operations, they face a critical bottleneck: how do we scale AI without sacrificing governance, exacerbating bias, or losing control of complex systems?
Drawing from the experience of enabling over 15,000 developers across 40 countries, my session provides an executive blueprint for scaling AI agents responsibly. We will explore the vital role of Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) architectures in maintaining governance and regulation compliance, particularly in highly regulated industries like healthcare and finance.
By treating AI as a "Digital Diplomat" rather than an autonomous overlord, technology leaders can embed AI ethics and bias mitigation directly into their development pipelines. Attendees will walk away with a proven operational framework for auditing AI agents, implementing low-code ethical guardrails, and successfully rolling out intelligent systems to diverse, global markets.
Key Takeaways:
The Executive HITL Framework: PArticipants will learn how to structure teams so human oversight is seamlessly integrated into autonomous agent workflows without creating bottlenecks.
They will also be able to iscover practical methods for conducting bias audits and embedding ethical guardrails into low-code AI agents.
Finally they can gain a strategic roadmap for maintaining strict regulatory compliance while accelerating the deployment of AI-driven automation at scale.
Explore the future of integration with APIs, intelligent agents, and agentic maturity, tr
In this talk, we will delve into the transformative power of APIs, intelligent agents, and the concept of agentic maturity. Discover how these technologies are revolutionizing business integration and automation, enabling seamless connectivity, enhanced efficiency, and smarter decision-making. Learn how integration, is paving the way for a future where systems not only connect but also collaborate intelligently to drive innovation and growth.
Solving Integration Challenges for AI Agents, and Agentic Maturity with APIs
In this session, we will explore how APIs, intelligent agents, and the concept of agentic maturity are redefining business integration. Discover how these technologies enable seamless data connectivity, automate workflows, and empower systems to operate with greater autonomy and intelligence. We will look at real-world examples and best practices to understand how APIs are driving innovation and efficiency, helping organizations stay ahead in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
Connections Upcoming
Connections is the premier marketing conference for mastering agentic AI. It’s where marketers build core skills, design AI-powered customer journeys, and gain the expertise to lead the future of customer engagement.
Agentforce World Tour New York Upcoming
The Agentforce World Tour New York is a free, one-day event brings the innovations of Agentic AI to New York City, focusing on how autonomous AI agents and data can transform business processes
TDX 2026
Key Highlights of TDX 2026
Technical Learning: Over 400 in-depth sessions, including hands-on workshops and live coding.
Focus on AI: A major emphasis for 2026 is building the "Agentic Enterprise" using Agentforce (autonomous AI agents) and Data Cloud.
Direct Access: Attendees can interact directly with the Salesforce engineers and product managers who build the platform.
TDX 2025
TDX, officially known as TrailblazerDX, is Salesforce’s premier annual technical conference designed specifically for "builders"—including developers, admins, architects, and IT leaders. Unlike Dreamforce, which is a broader event for all roles, TDX focuses deeply on the technical execution, product roadmaps, and hands-on training for the Salesforce platform.
Dreamforce 2025
Dreamforce is Salesforce's premier annual event, widely regarded as the world's largest AI and CRM conference. It brings together the global "Trailblazer" community—customers, partners, and employees—for three days of intensive learning, networking, and innovation
