I am an experienced technologist & career tester who has been in IT roles since 1987. I have had an interesting and varied career which has enabled me to work as a Head of Testing and Development in Financial Services and Life Sciences, and other business domains. I am the Director of Cornflower Technology Consulting, where I deliver strategic advice and services to clients on how to deliver great quality software, and ensure they get maximum value from their investments in Testing and Quality Engineering. I love helping people with their personal and professional development, so it is really exciting for me to be the Programme Chair for HUSTEF this year.
