I wish to further my career and expertise, in the field of Quality Assurance. I am a passionate, game-loving individual that enjoys a challenge and is always up for going the extra mile to complete a task. The satisfaction of being able to consistently find a path to reproduce a bug, to give the Code team a start into investigating or the feeling when finding a show-stopper crash before a build is certified, to catch an issue before users see it; are the kind of victories I thrive on!
As QA becomes an increasingly complex discipline and skillset, I too want to broaden and deepen my skills and value to a development team.
