About
I have loved technology since I was 8 years old, when I took my computer apart just to
figure out how to put it back together. QA and understanding how things work have been in
my blood ever since.
Over the last 5+ years I have worked across defense, hardware testing, security, and
software. People are my greatest strength: I build real connections, help teams work
together, and understand what users need. I pair that with a deep focus on data, balancing
hard technical problems with clear communication so everyone does their best work.
If your product needs to be exact and reliable, I know how to prove it works. Away from the
keyboard, you will usually find me baking or trying out a new recipe.

Recent roles and impact.
Sole QA Engineer for a full-stack data analysis platform, owning all quality responsibilities from process definition to release sign-off in a security-critical environment with zero pre-existing QA infrastructure.
- Discovered a critical data calculation inaccuracy through AI-powered code review and deep data analysis, classified as a release blocker that kept flawed operational data out of production.
- Architected the entire QA lifecycle from scratch: test strategy, quality gates, release criteria, and comprehensive test documentation.
- Designed and implemented an operational project management system, improving cross-team visibility across development, stakeholders, and operations.
- Performed deep-dive SQL validation, cross-referencing API responses with database records to catch data integrity issues before release.
- Executed functional, regression, integration, and exploratory testing across responsive web and mobile (PWA) in Agile sprints.
QA for a global leader in semiconductor metrology and process control, testing mission-critical measurement software deployed to tier-1 chip manufacturers including Samsung, Intel, and TSMC.
- Verified end-to-end functionality of in-house software interfacing with fab machines, validating precision across distributed measurement workflows.
- Tested message-driven architectures using RabbitMQ within microservices, ensuring reliable communication and data integrity.
- Investigated integration issues across software layers and hardware interfaces, driving root-cause analysis with R&D.
