Summary
I am a hands-on test engineer with deep-reaching customer service experience. My success as a test engineer is bolstered by professional experience empathizing with end-users who are managing a product for the first time. My performance as a client liaison is comparably optimized by the direct technical experience I have gained from a background in software engineering. I strive to be a team player and look forward to learning more about the work you do.
