Welcome to my site!

My name is Judi Sohn and I'm so glad you came to visit.

I mostly post about Salesforce and other nonprofit techie bits but occasionally I do have some posts about personal things like my love of my kids and knitting. More about me here.

If you'd like to contact me, please click here.

I am Solutions and Support Services Manager at KELL Partners, a consulting firm that specializes in Salesforce-based solutions for nonprofit organizations. My opinions here are purely my own, although my co-workers do tend to agree with me most of the time. That's why I like working there so much. :-)

This site contains my well-traveled blog content from 2003 to today. If you decide to look back in history, please pardon the tech dust of platforms gone by.
