Professional Summary

I'm a builder with over 10 years of experience in QA automation, now leveraging AI to multiply output across everything I do. I've built QA departments from scratch, shipped production apps, and created internal platforms—from ticketing systems with API integrations to full-stack web applications. Today, I use AI to accelerate test coverage, generate comprehensive test plans, and build systems faster than ever. Whether it's an automation framework, an operational platform, or a mobile app, I design it, build it, and make sure it works.
