SPEAKING
I bring to the stage ideas on quality, career development and AI, shaped by experience and study.
My talks combine practical experience, engineering and critical thinking. In recent years, I have focused mainly on Quality Engineering, career development, the use of AI in software quality, and the challenges of testing and evaluating AI-based systems.
