I am working as a passionate and individual QA Engineer with more than 5 years of hand-to-hand experience in manual and automation testing. My journey into software testing began with a deep passion for technology and a curiosity about how software works. After earning my Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems (BIS), I found myself drawn to the intricacies of software development and quality assurance. I started my career as a junior tester, where I quickly realized the importance of a thorough and conscientious approach to testing. My fascination with identifying bugs and improving software quality motivated me to develop my skills further and pursue a career in QA testing.
