When it came time to modernize Advancement at Wingate University, Cindy didn’t just lead, she launched. Backed by years of experience and a natural knack for learning new tools, Cindy helped guide her team into Salesforce Education Cloud with confidence and clarity. From signing in June 2024 to going live by November, this was one of the fastest implementations we’ve seen with QSS™, and a true testament to Cindy’s leadership. We’re excited to celebrate her as a QSS™ Superstar!

Occidental College is one of the early trailblazers embracing the future of advancement and engagement with Salesforce Education Cloud — and Natalie Greenhouse has played a key role in leading that effort. Working in close partnership with Sleek, Natalie helped guide Occidental through the transition from legacy systems to a more modern, integrated platform designed to meet the evolving needs of advancement teams. Her leadership and collaboration with both Sleek and the Salesforce product team positioned Occidental as one of the first institutions to adopt Education Cloud for fundraising and constituent engagement.
