Amber Boaz

Other duties as assigned

Amber entered the Salesforce universe in late 2008 and was immediately smitten. Since then she has passed 14 certification exams, founded or co-founded 5 user groups (Nonprofit UG, Dev Meetup, Architect, Women In Tech, & Slack), started a weekly Salesforce Saturday in central NC, and is a 8 time Dreamforce speaker. Amber has been a Salesforce.com MVP since 2011.

Amber is always looking for ways to help organizations streamline their processes. She has worked with Fortune 500 organizations, startups, nonprofits, and everything in between. When not Salesforce-ing, Amber enjoys walking her dog Ranger in her hometown of Durham NC, tweeting (@amber9904), community theater, and spending time with her nieces. Amber can be bribed with chocolate cake or gin.

Patrick Connelly

Session Wrangler & Code Tamer

Patrick has been writing code since he could first type (BASIC on the Commodore 64). In 2009 Patrick was asked to "help with this Salesforce thing since you know coding" and the rest is history. This set him on the track to lead the RDU Developer user group, becoming a Salesforce MVP in 2013 and speaking multiple times at Dreamforce and various Salesforce webinars.

When Patrick isn't writing code for work he's writing code for "fun", photographing things, 3d printing things, making things of wood and building things out of electronics.
