My career has been characterized by constant, often rapid growth, taking me over time from the role of software specialist to senior QA engineer and project manager. Along the way, I have been recognized for significantly exceeding expectations and I value the opportunity to mentor other engineers who want to grow in their professional roles. I take it upon myself to update and hone my technical and project management skills. Most recently, I earned my certification as a PMP and updated my knowledge of Agile and Scrum.
