I test enterprise HR, payroll, and compensation applications through reliable, audit-ready release validation.

I'm currently testing compensation, HR, payroll, and enterprise application changes at CNO Financial Group. I develop reusable test assets, validate workflows and interfaces with SQL, and support release-readiness decisions with clear evidence.

At Brown Health, I led QA for HR, compensation, payroll, benefits, and reporting releases in a controlled healthcare environment. I built repeatable regression suites, managed defects through closure, and strengthened traceability and audit records.

Earlier at Infosys, I tested enterprise, web-based, and database-driven applications across functional, integration, system, regression, smoke, and UAT cycles. I work closely with developers, analysts, vendors, and business users to isolate issues and verify reliable fixes.
