Topics I speak about
Quality leadership is the thread.
My work started well before generative AI. The goal has always been to help QA professionals become more analytical, influential and effective. AI is another way to pursue that goal.
From tester to strategist
Risk thinking, early influence, measurement, and the skills that make QA a meaningful contributor to engineering decisions.
Doing less, better
Lean operating models, useful automation, thoughtful test selection, and fewer activities that create motion without creating confidence.
AI that earns its place
Practical delegation to AI agents, review of their output, and integrating trusted assistance into testing and CI/CD workflows.
