I help enterprises and testers to build a pathway to reach higher levels of maturity by taking clear and tangible steps for improvement.

I have a comprehensive training portfolio to offer to Testers, Technical Testers, Test Managers and even for Non-Testers and To-Be-Testers.

Workshop

I bring software testing workshops to you, onsite. You can choose any one from my portfolio or let me customize a workshop just for your needs!
