As a Certified Scrum Master (CSM) and passionate Project Manager and Agile enthusiast, I have assisted teams transition from traditional "waterfall" SDLC environments to a culture of hyper-productive Agile practices and processes using a lightweight framework of tools and methods to improve their productivity and efficiency. I esteem highly the value of collaborative habits, flexible planning, and a culture of constant inspection and adaptation to improve team dynamics, performance and cohesion. I enjoy working on the 'people' side of software engineering and espouse the values advocated in the Agile Manifesto (http://agilemanifesto.org). A generalist at heart, I have worked 12+ years in Software Quality Assurance as an Analyst, Engineer, Manager and Leader, spanning different industries, technologies and commercial products, implementing QA organizations from scratch by building up processes, practices, teams and individuals. As an artist and visual thinker, I believe in exploring creative solutions to any task or challenge, and always welcome the opportunity to discover new, uncharted territory.
