See my Trailhead Profile


Trailhead is an amazing, free platform that allows you to learn continuously. It’s simple, cleverly done, and offers a completely new way to increase your skill set.
How long have you been working with Anypoint Platform? When did you start on Trailhead?
I have been using Mule (the community version) since 2007. I started with MuleSoft and Anypoint Platform in 2016. I started on Trailhead at the tail end of 2018.
What are your favorite activities in the Community to participate in?
As one of the leaders and founders of the Montreal MuleSoft Meetup, my favorite activities revolve around the Meetup. I enjoy seeing how the community grows and how individuals build their skills and improve in their careers. Being able to have an in person community for a technology creates so many great learning opportunities, sharing feedback as platform users, and fellow experts - it can't be beat.
What is something that you learned from Trailhead?
I have learned a lot about Salesforce development and administration. But most importantly, with Trailhead, I discovered how to find time to learn on a regular basis. A 30-minute commute can be transformed into a 30-minute learning session...that’s how it pays off!
What does being a Trailblazer mean to you?
For me, being a Trailblazer doesn't only mean opening up a trail for others. It's leading by example. Supporting my team members who are planning their own routes and building their own trails as well.
How will Trailhead and MuleSoft be a part of your company's future?
At Pstox, MuleSoft is part of our DNA. Being early adopters, we have seen the platform evolution and its adoption by the market. We strongly believe that MuleSoft will be the leader for years to come, and learning on Trailhead will help us keep up with the latest content.
What message do you have for people new to Trailhead?
Trailhead is an amazing, free platform that allows you to learn continuously. It’s simple, cleverly done, and offers a completely new way to increase your skill set. Max the mule is very friendly, too. Don’t be shy, give it a try!

It’s time to start your own story.
