01 — About me

Senior QA engineer with enterprise depth

Senior Quality Analyst with 7+ years of experience spanning manual testing, test automation, AI-driven chatbot validation, and accessibility testing. I currently lead QA across multiple enterprise-scale products as a Software Engineer III in Test.

My expertise lies in building Selenium and Playwright-based automation frameworks from the ground up, validating conversational AI flows, and establishing testing playbooks that scale across entire product teams.

I bring a strong QA leadership mindset — mentoring engineers, driving sprint ceremonies, and collaborating closely with product and development teams to ship with confidence.

Earlier in my career I delivered 3+ years of QA for a major US tech client, covering cross-platform iOS/Android testing and full regression lifecycle management with Power BI reporting.
