Samuel Thornton

I’ve worked across clean tech, solar, e-commerce, and consulting, with a strong focus on technical troubleshooting, client onboarding, and workflow optimization. At OpConnect, I supported EV infrastructure by onboarding clients onto Azure-based platforms, streamlining operations, and driving revenue growth. I’m fluent in CRM systems like HubSpot and Salesforce, and I know how to turn complex problems into clear, actionable solutions. My background in business administration with a focus on technology and innovation helps me connect strategy with execution — especially in mission-driven environments. I’m now pivoting toward roles that blend sustainability, emerging tech, and global impact.
