Guiding Salesforce Technical Leaders of Tomorrow
My mission is to foster the development of technical skills and cultivate emerging leaders in technology. Throughout my Salesforce journey, I've transitioned from a hands-on tech expert to a role of educator and advisor. I'm deeply committed to imparting knowledge, unraveling the complexities of the platform, and steering aspiring architects on their professional path. Witnessing my students' moments of clarity and their subsequent achievements, such as earning certifications and career progression, is immensely gratifying.
Teaching and sharing insights have always been my passion, and I aim to broaden this impact through insightful videos on my @SteveTechArc YouTube Channel, as well as through the video libraries and blogs on this site.
An Amazing January 2025 for the Architect Community
As Co-Founder of Cactusforce (alongside Marisa Hambleton), we proudly hosted the 7th Annual Cactusforce Conference in Phoenix, AZ. This event has grown into a premier gathering for the Salesforce Community, bringing together architects, developers, and technical leaders for deep-dive sessions and collaboration. This year’s conference was another fantastic opportunity to connect, learn, and strengthen our community.
Meanwhile, Architect Dreamin’ has continued to thrive in Europe, and I was honored to help bring it to the United States for the first time. As part of an incredible organizing team, we created an event that united Salesforce Architects from around the world. One of the most inspiring moments was seeing organizers from nearly 15 other Community events participate in person— a true testament to the strength and dedication of the global Salesforce Community.
Honored to be recognized as a Salesforce MVP!
I am thrilled to share that I have been inducted into the Class of 2024 Salesforce MVPs! This recognition is incredibly meaningful to me, reflecting not only my commitment to the Salesforce community but also the honor of being counted among such experts and leaders.
My gratitude extends to the entire Salesforce team and the community that has been my professional home for nearly two decades.
Looking ahead, I am eager to continue contributing to the Salesforce community in even more significant ways. I am excited about the future and the opportunities to assist more individuals on their learning journeys, regardless of their experience level.

From September 4, 2023 to January 26, 2024 I embarked on an ambitious challenge: to release a video every day for 100 days, pausing only for weekends and holidays. I’m proud to share that I met the challenge and now have over 120 videos live.
The videos I’ve put together are geared towards supporting those on their Salesforce Architect journey. These are more than just tutorials; they are a conduit for sharing my experience, tips, and hands-on demonstrations with the broader Architect Community
Each video is designed to break down technical concepts, share personal insights, provide practical demonstrations, and explore something new and intriguing in the Salesforce realm. These are organized around key architect domains and other technical topics.
