Root System

What's visible grows from what's underneath.

Deep roots, ready for the next season.

Root 01

Front-End Craft

Root 02

Marketing Automation

Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Journey Builder, Automation Studio — building the logic that sends the right message at the right moment, every time.

Data & SQL

SQL queries against millions of subscriber records. Data extensions, segmentation, personalization — turning raw data into relevant experiences.

Root 04

Quality Assurance

425 campaign reviews in a single year. 100+ deployments, zero in-market errors. The unsexy discipline that protects the brand.

What's Next

Building toward AI, health tech, and climate tech — where purpose meets engineering. Every skill above is a root system for what comes next.

Root 07

Inclusive by Design

This site was built accessibility-first: WCAG AA contrast, keyboard navigation, screen reader support, reduced motion, dark mode, three languages, and a full content summary for assistive technology. Because good engineering means everyone gets in.

How the system works — because I think in pipelines.

Ingest

Data enters the system — subscriber records, behavioral signals, preference flags. Every campaign starts with clean, structured inputs.

Segment

SQL queries slice audiences by behavior, lifecycle stage, and eligibility. The right message for the right person — at scale.

Orchestrate

Journey Builder maps the logic. Automation Studio schedules the execution. AMPscript personalizes every touchpoint dynamically.

Deliver

SPF, DKIM, DMARC — authenticated sends that land in the inbox, not spam. QA'd, tested, deployed. Zero errors, full confidence.
