What I'm looking for
As a dedicated transcription manager and software tester, I have over eight years of experience in managing teams and ensuring the quality of software products. My journey began at Syracuse University, where I earned a dual degree in Marketing and Entrepreneurship. Since then, I have honed my skills in various roles, including my current position at Imfuna, where I lead a team of transcriptionists and assist in the testing of mobile and web applications.
My professional ethos revolves around efficiency and accuracy. At Imfuna, I have successfully created and managed style guides and glossaries, ensuring consistency across our transcription services. My experience in software testing has equipped me with the ability to create Jira stories and systematically test software, providing valuable feedback to developers. I take pride in my ability to streamline processes and enhance team performance, which has been a key factor in my career progression.
