“Do it right, do it with style and never dream small!”

I’m a Software Quality Assurance Analyst with over 15 years of experience in the videogame and tech industries. During this time, I’ve helped release and support 10 AAA gaming titles such as Overwatch, World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth and Hearthstone’s many expansions.

During my time at Blizzard Entertainment, I verified the mobile and desktop compatibility and performance of multiple titles on emerging, current and older supported hardware, drivers and operating systems against Blizzard’s game titles to ensure an excellent product.

My current focus is on supporting Hearthstone’s announced and unannounced releases on iOS, Android, Mac and PC through network data gathering, performance ratings and overall stability.

In my spare time, I’m an award-winning author of short stories and novels, including both original and fanfiction works. This is in addition to my published Kindle short stories. In the last several years, I’ve also been working on an ambitious story-driven game project which had gone through many different versions due to a host of reasons.

I’m best known for my tenacious attitude toward isolating and identifying problems while working with my team as both a teacher and a student. I love building connections with other passionate people as well as supporting new and exciting diversity and inclusion projects.
