From Salesman to Tester to Director of Engineering

Like many testers, I was not looking to get into a Software Testing career. Instead, I was selling cell phones and someone gave me a chance to break into the tech field! My lack of programming, software testing, and overall testing knowledge could have prevented me from progressing or slowed me down. However, within 7 years I went from Software Tester to a Test Architect, then an Engineering Manager at Adobe, and now the Technical Leader for an AI company! In this presentation, I will take you through that journey and give you 6 tips that you can use to accelerate your growth and your career.
