I’m passionate about creating software that people can truly rely on. Not just software that “works”, but software that is thoughtfully built, easy to use, and delivers real value to the people who depend on it every day. For me, quality isn’t something you add at the end with more testing – it’s something you design into every decision, every process, and every line of code.
Throughout my career in quality and engineering leadership, I’ve seen how great products emerge when teams have the right mindset, the right practices, and a shared sense of ownership. I love helping organizations improve the way they build software: simplifying broken processes, strengthening collaboration, and creating a culture where learning and continuous improvement are part of everyday work.
My goal with Software Shakeup is simple: help teams build better software by building better ways of working. When processes support people, and people are empowered to care deeply about what they create, the result is software that delights customers, scales with confidence, and stands the test of time.
