Breaking games

So players don’t

About me

Heyo! I’m Link (yep, like the hero) - QA specialist and lifelong gamer.

I hold a foundational software testing certification through the International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB) as well as an advanced certification in game testing. I’m currently sharpening my skills with JIRA, Postman, Unity, Unreal Engine, and more via Udemy courses as well.

My strongest genres are RPG’s, JRPG’s, action-adventures, and platformers. More importantly though, I’m passionate about deeply immersive gameplay, staying lost in lands and stories beyond our own. That’s why I’m here to help catch the small cracks before they become big ones — because players deserve journeys that feel seamless from start to finish.

Saving worlds is what reminds me to explore our own [ridiculously beautiful, miraculous, awe-inspiring] world to the fullest. So let’s go make some worlds to save.
