Aspiring software engineer and game developer with a passion for quality.
CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I am a technology-passionate professional with a strong foundation in software development, quality assurance, and game design. My journey began with a diploma in Software Engineering from Centennial College, where I graduated with honors, achieving a grade average above 90%. My academic background has equipped me with the skills necessary to excel in the tech industry, and I am eager to apply my knowledge in an entry-level position.
In my recent role as a Technical Coordinator at Ian Martin Group, I honed my analytical skills by assembling, testing, and troubleshooting hardware components while ensuring compliance with quality standards. Additionally, I designed and developed a game called 'WELSH: Wordalike,' which was successfully published on both the App Store and Google Play Store. This project allowed me to utilize tools like Visual Studio and Unity, and it deepened my understanding of game design and user experience.
My experience as a Quality Assurance Tester at LuckyVR further solidified my commitment to delivering high-quality products. I effectively collaborated with teams to identify and resolve technical issues, utilizing JIRA for bug tracking and reporting. I thrive in fast-paced environments and am dedicated to maintaining high performance and consistency in all my endeavors.
