What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a collaborative QA role where I can expand my skills, contribute to test strategy and automation, mentor others, and improve product quality through strong processes and measurable outcomes.

I'm a curious, analytical Senior QA Tester with over 12 years of hands-on testing experience across healthcare and lab applications. I've authored and reviewed test cases, led testing efforts for releases, implemented testing and performance strategies, and represented test teams in audits while improving regression coverage and traceability.

I bring strong technical skills in SQL, JSON, ETL, API testing (Postman), and Microsoft/A Atlassian suites, plus extensive customer-service experience and training experience. I aim to join a collaborative team that values shared ideas, continuous improvement, and measurable quality outcomes.
