What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a fully remote QA role focused on narrative and functional game testing within a collaborative, growth-minded team where I can lead test planning, mentor juniors, and deliver high-quality player experiences.

I am a remote-ready Quality Verification Analyst with seven years of QA testing, analysis, and narrative validation experience, progressively promoted from Game Tester to Analyst II at Electronic Arts.

I specialize in test planning, Jira and Confluence workflows, narrative and functional testing, and player-focused validation; I’ve led QA efforts for high-impact game areas, managed JIRA dashboards, authored Confluence documentation, and mentored junior analysts and testers. I was selected for promotion to Associate Quality Designer in 2024 (advancement delayed due to company-wide budget constraints).

My background in international customer service as a flight attendant and front desk clerk complements my technical precision with strong interpersonal skills, adaptability, and calm under pressure. I’m focused on securing a fully remote role where I can contribute to a collaborative, growth-minded team and continue developing QA processes and mentoring others.
