Senior Quality Assurance Engineer



I am a long time tester with experience covering networking equipment software, SNMP applications, virtual machines, capacitance touch devices, video games and distributed database applications/web services. I've also tended to work as a "Lone Tester" in many of these environments. I am the producer of STP's "This Week in Software Testing" podcast (hosted by Matt Heusser). I am a black-belt in the Miagi-Do School of Software Testing. I am a member of the Board of Directors and Chair of the Education Special Interest Group with the Association for Software Testing. I am a founder and the principal facilitator for the America's chapter of Weekend Testing. I wrote a chapter for the book "How to Reduce the Cost of Software Testing", published by Auerbach in 2011. I can be found on Twitter at @mkltesthead and I blog at http://mkltesthead.com/.
