PROFILEI am looking to contribute to an organization where I can work with various programs and technology. I believe the opportunity to explore all levels of development and QA, from the initial concept to the completed project, creates a strong foundation for any QA. Taking the next step forward, I would like to collaborate with a company to test my skills and creativity for Design, Development, QA, and Project Management.
