"The delicate balance of mentoring someone is not creating them in your own image, but giving them the opportunity to create themselves."
Thanks for visiting my website. It is a mix of personal interests and professional experience.
My professional background is focused on software quality assurance, but not just pointing and clicking! My approach to quality assurance is engineering based with an emphasis on "pushing left" and building teams from the "ground up". This means understanding the importance of being involved early in the software development lifecycle, being able to create detailed documentation, reliable processes, automating error-prone, mission critical and mundane tests, as well as harnessing human strengths (like exploratory testing).
I also have speaking experience on a variety of topics software quality assurance-related. My contact information is in the footer if you are interested in having me speak at an event.
When I'm not being a software quality assurance guru I enjoy a variety of activities, some of which are represented on my website. I like making craft cocktails , building things , and listening to podcasts.

It is time to say goodbye to NASA's Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory. After nearly 22 years of service, the satellite re-entered Earth's atmosphere on November 4 at 7:39 EST over the North Sumatra region of Indonesia. The featured image is a mosaic created in 2018 using the first one million images captured by the satellite's Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope. Swift had a combination of instruments, including an X-ray telescope and a gamma-ray telescope, that worked together to enable humanity to study, in unprecedented detail, the fastest and most energetic explosions in the universe. The most recent solar maximum accelerated the decay of the satellite's orbit. An innovative mission to rescue Swift by boosting its orbit was not successful. Swift burned on reentry like a shooting star, but the impressive data acquired by the telescope over its mission will continue to bring light to the mysteries of the cosmos for years to come. May it keep inspiring new missions to boldly go into space, explore new data and seek out new science.
