Hi there, thanks for coming to my site!

I am an eager-to-learn individual with Design and QA experience. Working in teams big and small, I have followed both personal and professional projects from pre-production through to release. Furthermore, working on and maintaining live titles, through patches and hotfixes.

Currently, I am working as Quality Assurance Lead at Feral interactive, a game publisher specialising in; Mac, Linux, Mobile and Nintendo Switch porting, bringing back both timeless classics and some of the latest Windows releases for Mac and Linux.

Continue onwards, if you'd like to know more... :)

My day to day includes tasks such as:

Creating testplans that cover the testing of a project against its deadline or milestones.
Reporting on the progress of these plans to management, as well as meeting with other departments to discuss their work or any concerns.
Maintaining project databases in Jira, assigning and adjusting ticket priority, as well as ensuring the correct process' are being followed.
Managing the work of QA technicians assigned to thee projects I am responsible for, this includes:
- Delegating work from the test plan.
- Reviewing and giving feedback on this work and tickets created.
- Monitoring team KPIs in order to spot inefficiencies & recuring problems.
- Answering technical queries.
- Onboarding of new starters.
Lead interview tests, sat by QA candidates before they interview.
Manual testing of my own projects, as well as others being worked on by our department.

I am very passionate about my work, bringing experience gained in my design bachelors to good use where possible. I have a passion for the user experience of the titles I work on, so place emphasis on making sure the systems and features implemented work well for the criteria they are expected to meet, not that they simply work without bugs!
