PERSONAL STATEMENT

I have a proven track record of outstanding project management, Quality Assurance leading, editing, and proofreading skills. I am an excellent communicator, problem solver, and team player with exceptional multitasking skills. I have experience in both team building and leading. I am also extremely proactive with regards to self-improvement. In addition, I have proven myself to be a quick study when it comes to new opportunities and I welcome any chance to challenge myself. Finally, I have a strong background in troubleshooting (using both JIRA and Confluence), and a unique ability to apply solutions that may not, in the first instance, be obvious. I thrive on finding and improving the patterns behind the systems.
