Published: Sept. 1, 2020, 9:24 p.m.

In today's episode, we speak with Regional Vice President at Mulesoft and Salesforce CTA, Emely Patra, who is based in the UK. Having achieved her CTA in 2018, Emely originally came from an Oracle background, and she talked us through at length how she moved into the Salesforce ecosystem and what that transition was like. She tells the story of her CTA preparation and also shares her memories of the moment she was given the news that she had passed the Review Board. We discuss the methodology of architecture, what professional benefits come from the preparation itself, and the reasoning people should consider when embarking on their own CTA journeys. We enjoyed hearing what Emely enjoys the most in her day to day role, and what excites her about the future of the ecosystem. Make sure you're following Emely on LinkedIn, where she shares upcoming speaking engagements and other Salesforce related content. This episode was brought to you by our sponsors, FlowRepublic, the Elite Salesforce Academy. We hope you enjoy the episode!
