    Bio

    I am a test engineer and senior QA working at XWP.co – I enjoy finding ways that user experiences differ from design assumption & development implementation, focusing on getting software out to customers sooner than later while challenging developer optimism & surfacing risk to product owners and client representatives.

    Interests

    Test Oracles and Heuristics, Risk Analysis and Mitigation, User Behavior and Satisfaction

    WordPress Origin Story

    I helped set up the WordPress site for my amateur beekeeping club. I discovered firsthand the fun and easy way that WordPress enables collaborative storytelling, for a wide variety of users with different comfort levels with technology. This led me to build a site for my partner, my garden club, and myself. I was very fortunate to be able to join XWP.co – a fantastic WordPress web agency, that allows me to contribute to open-source projects while working on interesting client problems and helping the highly skilled development team build amazing websites.
