Started career as a Test Analyst and found my passion in business analysis and leading the projects. My technical knowledge added a flavor to my Quality Analyst role as I can be an expert liaison between business stakeholders and Test teams. My experience made me an expert in business process engineering and software development life cycle, including analysis, design, development, testing and implementation of software applications. My interest to move toward Processes made me to take certification as Scrum Master.
