As a Ruby on Rails developer with a specialized focus as a Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET), my diverse background in linguistics and craft beer management offers a unique perspective to software development and quality assurance. With over nine years of experience in customer-facing roles within the craft beer industry, including managing tasting rooms and brewpubs and achieving the Certified Cicerone® credential, I excel in environments that require meticulous attention to detail and a deep understanding of complex systems.Leveraging my experience as an Airborne Cryptological Linguist in the US Air Force, I have honed my analytical skills and developed a systematic approach to problem-solving, which I now apply to software testing and development. My passion for languages extends into programming, where I thrive on the challenges of ensuring software quality and reliability. With a commitment to continuous learning and improvement, I am eager to contribute my expertise in test automation and collaborative skills to create innovative solutions.
