I'm a multi-disciplinary software QA professional. I have 5 years of managerial experience and a total of over 10 years of “in-the-trenches” track record with complex processes, products and environments. I believe that QA is a part of R&D and not an opposing force, and can help development teams reach their goals faster and with fewer cycles - without compromising on being meticulous with what we are releasing in regards to content, features and customer value.
