At Amazon, I executed test cases across iOS and Android devices, including Amazon Fire tablets, and documented defects when devices or builds didn’t meet expected outcomes.

I analyzed test results using internal testing tools, followed quality procedures and technical documentation, and communicated findings to cross-functional partner teams.

At Pearson, I evaluated assessments against standardized rubrics, reviewed submissions for discrepancies, and maintained detailed records while following scoring procedures.

At Magellan Health, I handled member and provider calls, documented cases, and handled protected health information in accordance with HIPAA requirements. I’m currently pursuing an M.S. in CyberPsychology, focused on information security and human factors.
