What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values team collaboration and offers opportunities for professional growth.

With a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and over 20 years of experience, I have dedicated the last decade to honing my skills in team development and leadership. My extensive background encompasses process standardization, team management, and the administration of budgets and departmental assets. I excel in role leveling, career path development, interviewing, and candidate evaluation, ensuring that my teams are not only effective but also motivated and aligned with organizational goals.

In my current role as a QA/QC Lead, I supervise and lead a talented QA team, conducting performance evaluations and making promotion decisions. I have successfully designed career paths and continuous training plans tailored to individual roles, fostering a collaborative work environment. My strategic planning skills have allowed me to define and execute the QA department’s strategic plan, actively participating in decisions for new projects and ensuring the integration of quality practices from the outset.

Throughout my career, I have established QA frameworks and key performance indicators (KPIs) for performance monitoring, designed and implemented QA strategies, and provided cross-functional support to ensure the correct adoption of quality processes. My commitment to continuous improvement and risk management has been instrumental in delivering high-quality outcomes across various projects.
