About myself Organized and meticulous Quality Assurance Manager with nearly a decade of experience in the QA
industry.
I worked with companies of all sizes, from rapidly-moving start-ups to large corporations. I have
experience testing desktop and web applications, embedded devices, cloud technologies covering many
AWS services, integration testing with 3rd party APIs, and SQL queries.
I'm great at building communicative and trustworthy relationships with coworkers, and guiding teams
through high-pressure timelines to meet tight deadlines.
Testing is my passion! Common sense, logical thinking and effective team collaboration are my keys to
success!
