About

QA Lead with a proven record of architecting test strategies, implementing automation frameworks and embedding Agile/DevOps practices to accelerate releases and reduce risk. I’m passionate about recruiting, mentoring and scaling high-performing QA teams while embedding quality engineering across the SDLC. Over my career I’ve led QA efforts for complex web, mobile and VR applications, introduced risk-based test strategies and automation pipelines that cut release cycles while maintaining top-tier quality, and built dashboards and KPIs to give leadership actionable insights. Acting as a quality champion between Product, Development and Operations, I ensure smooth, reliable releases that delight end-users. I’m open to senior QA leadership roles where I can architect QA strategy, scale teams, embed quality engineering practices and recruit exceptional talent..
