I am a Senior QA Analyst with 10+ years of experience in manual and automated testing across Agile and Waterfall environments. I love turning ambiguous requirements into solid test plans, building reusable frameworks, and driving quality across complex, multi-component systems. In my day-to-day I mentor teammates, design comprehensive test strategies, and partner with engineers to release reliable software. I enjoy exploring new testing techniques, improving CI/CD pipelines, and contributing to cross-functional product quality initiatives.
