About

QA Leader with 13+ years of hands-on experience in building scalable test automation strategies across web and mobile platforms. I specialize in leading agile QA teams, implementing shift-left/right testing, and modernizing quality engineering using tools like Appium, Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, and AI-assisted techniques. I’ve led 20+ QA engineers, driven quality for high-growth eCommerce platforms (B2B & B2C), and architected CI/CD-integrated test frameworks with Docker, Kubernetes, and Jenkins. My strengths lie in blending test automation, exploratory testing, security and performance validation, accessibility testing and mentoring next-gen QA talent. I believe in building test strategies that not only detect defects but prevent them, promote continuous learning, and elevate product quality at scale. * Always open to collaboration, mentoring, and driving quality forward. * Currently based in Colorado, open to remote/hybrid QA leadership roles.
