About me

I test.
I automate.
I deliver.

With over 9+ years in software quality at Deutsche Telekom, Axxessio GmbH, and KSB, I've built test frameworks from scratch, managed QA teams, and shipped strategies for mobile apps, voice assistants, and industrial IoT platforms.

I believe quality isn't a phase, it's a mindset. I bring that to every sprint, every automation pipeline, and every team I work with. Currently based in Darmstadt.
