What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated software engineer with a strong foundation in quality assurance and a passion for ensuring software excellence.

I thrive in collaborative environments, where I can leverage my skills in accessibility testing and cross-functional teamwork to deliver high-quality software solutions.
Throughout my career, I have developed a keen eye for detail and a commitment to continuous learning. I have led training sessions and created comprehensive test plans that have significantly improved our testing processes. My ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders has been instrumental in driving project success and fostering a culture of quality within my teams.
