About

I'm a QA Engineer at Zscaler, passionate about building secure, resilient products through thoughtful testing and automation. I work on the Cybersecurity Deception team, where I test features, simulate real-world attack scenarios, and automate workflows using Python and Selenium. I enjoy working across cloud platforms like AWS and Azure, integrating with tools like Splunk and Sumo Logic, and diving into ITDR testing and Active Directory. Before Zscaler, I was a Test Engineer at Arista and Pluribus Networks, gaining hands-on experience with networking and automation. With a background in Software Defined Networking and certifications like CCNA and CCNP, I’m always eager to grow further — especially in security-focused QA, cloud infrastructure, and impactful engineering work.
