Hi, I’m Cas — a technologist, advisor, and pilot who’s been building things in tech since the 1980s. Over the years, I’ve worked with startups, global enterprises, and everything in between. My focus has always been on making technology work better for people — especially in customer experience, communication platforms, and cloud solutions.
What I Do
These days, I’m a Principal Solution Engineer at Salesforce, where I help companies like Boeing and Sysco solve complex CX and CRM challenges. That means I spend my time designing strategies, building demos, working with engineering teams, and making sure customers walk away with a solution that actually fits their needs.
Before this, I held leadership roles at Oracle, worked on a few startup exits, and consulted across industries — from telecom to EdTech to agriculture.
My Background
I was born in South America and lived in nine different countries before settling in the U.S. in 2001. That global path shaped how I see the world — and how I approach building tech that works across cultures, industries, and time zones.
I got my start in tech before the internet was mainstream, running a computer retail chain, tinkering with hardware, and diving into early EdTech. Since then, I’ve founded startups, supported IPOs and acquisitions, and led cloud transformations from the inside.
Areas I’ve Worked In
- Customer Experience (CX) and CRM Strategy
- SaaS, CaaS, and Cloud Architecture
- Startups, Pre-sales, and GTM Strategy
- Contact Center Automation, AI, and Voice Tech
- Data Strategy and Integration
- Aviation Training and Ground Instruction (yep, I’m also a pilot)
“I’ve spent my career building tech that works for people — not the other way around. Whether it’s a startup in its first year or a global enterprise transforming at scale, I believe great technology should simplify, connect, and empower — never complicate.”
Tech Meets Takeoff
Outside of work, I’m an FAA-certified pilot and drone operator. I also teach ground school and hold multiple aviation certifications. Flying keeps me sharp and teaches me how to stay calm under pressure — which comes in handy in both boardrooms and data centers.
Let’s Talk
I love connecting with people who are building something — whether it’s a product, a business, or an idea. If you want to talk cloud, CX, or just geek out about aviation or startups, feel free to reach out.
