With the finite time I have on this earth, I live to learn deeply so I can better the lives of those around me."To a mind that is still, the entire universe surrenders." - Chuang Tzu, Tao Te Ching💻 𝗤𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆𝗟𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗰My work at QualityLogic consists of supporting customers, partners, and internal team members in both software quality assurance and digital accessibility. This usually includes some measure of consulting as well business practice management, R&D, and working to expand the value we deliver.🌄 𝗠𝘆 𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱The underpinning of my personhood is my wife who stood by me and instilled within me a passion to be all I can. I owe my successes and health first and foremost to her.I grew up in a small Canadian mining town. I dropped out of high-school due to mental health struggles (later completed this online). As a person who had deep social anxiety, I went into portrait photography, the most social job I could find to meet my challenges head on. I went to college with an intent to go into law, immigrated to the United States, and then dropped out as tuition tripled and it no longer served my goals. I fell into solutioning with customers and later into QA and accessibility. At this point, I've spent nearly a decade working closely with customers and internal teams, understanding their QA/accessibility challenges and goals, and working collaboratively to bring about the change they wish to see. My story here is truncated, but my path has been a lifelong journey of curiosity, self-education, and the desire to uplift the people I meet along the way.These days, my life is quiet by design. I'm passionate about the work I do, and when I'm not working, I'm spending time with my wife hiking trails near our Idaho home.🍵 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁I'm always open to connecting. Let's meet and see how we can work together. 😊(Just don't pitch me, please.)
