PHILLIP_BERGER salesforce · c# · python · ai · frontier topics in consciousness · dallas, tx

Innovative problem-solver with a passion for automating complex workflows and optimizing processes. I code daily to create and refine solutions that enhance efficiency, reduce manual effort, and improve system integrations. With a strong background in Salesforce, C#, and business process automation, I enjoy building practical systems that solve real operational challenges.

My interests may appear unrelated at first glance. Software automation, process design, remote viewing, anomalous cognition, and consciousness research seem to exist in completely separate domains. To me, however, they are connected through a shared interest in systems, signal extraction, observation, and the limits of current models. Whether debugging software, analyzing workflows, or exploring claims surrounding consciousness and perception, I'm interested in how humans detect patterns, process information, and interact with complex systems.

Beyond software development, I enjoy exploring frontier topics related to consciousness, perception, and human potential. I follow scientific research and public discourse surrounding areas such as remote viewing, mind-matter interactions, extrasensory perception (ESP), and non-human intelligence (NHI). While many of these subjects remain controversial or poorly understood, I believe they raise important questions about the nature of consciousness and the boundaries of human experience.

We are living through a period of rapid technological and cultural change. From advances in artificial intelligence to growing public discussions surrounding anomalous phenomena and consciousness research, I find this era deeply inspiring. It motivates me to continue building, learning, questioning assumptions, and remaining adaptable in the face of emerging ideas and new discoveries.

\\ SOP_CONSOLIDATION_TOOL
Custom single-file HTML application consolidating 100+ state and federal garnishment SOPs into a unified, interactive reference tool. Built with a responsive dark/light mode UI and smart dropdown system that dynamically renders state and order-type-specific guidance, including Workday field instructions, legal compliance sections, exception fields, and order-specific messaging from a centralized JavaScript data layer. Eliminates document fragmentation across the organization and ensures consistent, up-to-date process references for the entire garnishment team.
[HTML] [INTERNAL TOOLING]
\\ NAME_PARSER
Python utility for splitting raw full name strings into first and last name fields. Built for OCR processing of garnishment orders, where name formats vary widely across jurisdictions and document sources. Handles comma, hyphen, prefix, compound surname, and suffix variations.

\\ FILE_MANAGER_APP
.NET 8 C# library for automating high-volume file operations across local and network directories. Supports moving, renaming, and auditing files with optional date-range filtering and automatic subdirectory sorting by year or year/month. Interface-driven architecture with dependency injection via a static Factory, and a StreamWriter-based logger scoped to each operation's lifetime.

\\ ASPOSE_LETTERS
PDF generation framework built with Aspose.PDF and Aspose.Words for .NET 8, developed to explore programmatic document generation with precise layout control. Uses a composable section architecture (letterhead, address blocks, footer, signature) with MM-based positioning converted to PDF points at runtime. Includes a typed field schema with Salesforce API name mapping and a text rectangle height estimator for dynamic vertical layout before rendering.

\\ PDFSHARP_LETTERS
A full conversion of the Aspose.PDF letter framework to PDFsharp 6.2 (MIT), eliminating the commercial license dependency while preserving equivalent output. Required rearchitecting the rendering model from object-based paragraph accumulation to direct gfx.DrawString() calls, implementing a custom word-wrap loop with MeasureString(), and writing a WindowsFontResolver to supply system fonts to PDFsharp's Core build. Retains the same composable section architecture, MM-based positioning, typed Salesforce field schema, and scoped XGraphics lifetime pattern from the original project.

\\ LST_DISPLAY
Arduino sketch for the Soldered Inkplate 10 (ESP32 e-ink display) that shows Local Sidereal Time, UTC, and local time on a persistent low-power screen. Includes a live countdown to the peak remote viewing window (12:45-14:15 LST), based on parapsychology research suggesting ~400% improved accuracy near 13:30 LST when the galactic center aligns with the horizon. LST is derived from the Unix epoch via Julian Date to avoid a DST double-subtraction bug during CST/CDT transitions.

\\ CLAUDE-ASSISTED_RV_PROTOCOL
A structured, verifiable protocol for conducting remote viewing sessions with Claude AI as tasker or viewer. Uses a password-protected Word document as a tamper-evident target container — locked before the session begins — to eliminate motivated feedback and make results falsifiable. Developed through direct experimentation across live sessions, refining the procedure to give both human and AI a shared standard of integrity.
