SUMMARY
I received my first start in QA as a manual video game tester at Aspyr Media. I was able to learn the fundamentals of QA from the test leads and project managers there, and also ended up finding my calling for QA. I’ve worked on various projects and platforms since. My next goal is to tackle front end automation so I can become a full stack tester.
