About Me
With six years of experience working on quality-driven software, I thrive on helping tech teams deliver exceptional products. My work focuses on creating streamlined processes and test case automation that ensures quality becomes the default standard, not just an afterthought.
I’ve had the opportunity to make an impact across various organizations, from a scaling startup that went from zero customers to over 100 global college institutions as recurring customers, to building a full coverage automation suite for an enterprise cloud platform serving more than 20,000 Texas students.
My self-driven journey into technology has equipped me with a unique, user-centric perspective. I excel at bridging the gap between technical implementation and the end-user experience, leveraging the latest tools to deliver reliable and intuitive software.
I am at my best when I am automating quality processes, refining product documentation, and shaping the overall quality strategy of a product. Please feel free to explore my work below.

November 2024 - March 2025 (Contract)
At Alogra, I was tasked with solving the manual data entry bottleneck from client discovery calls. I designed and deployed an end-to-end automation solution that transformed this essential business process.
The custom-built pipeline captures raw call data via voice agent API webhooks, uses AI-driven transcription and prompting to structure the information, and then automatically populates it into their CMS.
The result was a completely hands-free workflow, which eliminated manual errors, saved dozens of hours per month, and ensured critical client data was immediately available to the entire organization.
Utilized N8N and Make to create a custom automation system to capture and process data from client discovery calls, eliminating all manual data entry for a critical business function.
Integrated RetellAI’s voice agent API webhooks to ingest raw audio data, then implemented a transcription and Prompt Engineering pipeline to convert it into structured, actionable insights.
Automated the final data formatting and delivery directly into the company's CMS, providing clean, immediate data access for all teams.
