Skills

A closer look at the practical skills behind my QA, technical support, and client-facing work — useful for recruiters and hiring managers matching roles to specific capabilities.

Website QA & testing

I test business websites before they go live, checking layout, content, links, forms, and functionality against the brief, then confirm fixes with a second pass before sign-off.

Technical support & troubleshooting

I diagnose and resolve website issues, escalate what needs specialist attention, and have worked directly with businesses on one-off technical builds, including API-related workflows.

CMS & website operations

Comfortable making accurate content and configuration updates inside a content management system, and managing several live website projects at once without dropping details.

Client communication & customer service

Years of direct customer-facing work — from hospitality to business website projects — have made me comfortable explaining technical topics in plain language and staying calm when priorities shift.

Quality control & data accuracy

Before moving into web QA, I worked in an industrial laboratory testing product samples for quality control and logging results accurately under time pressure — a discipline that carries directly into digital QA.

Engineering & technical foundations (in progress)

Currently completing a Diploma of Engineering at Southern Cross University, building on earlier first-year study in physics, computer science, and IT at the University of Wollongong and UNSW, plus a completed TAFE NSW Certificate III in Information Technology.
