I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, where I developed strong analytical, problem-solving, and quality-focused skills through academic projects, laboratory work, and team-based assignments. My studies emphasized structured thinking, process validation, documentation, and attention to detail, which later helped me transition into software quality assurance. This engineering foundation enables me to approach testing, integration, and security validation with a methodical and results-driven mindset.
