Hi! My name's Wesley. 

I'm a software QA engineer from Chicago and currently in Boston.

I gained interest in tech, data and software during my undergraduate program at University of Illinois - Chicago (UIC). I was a double major studying Marketing before also learning about Information & Decision Sciences. There, I studied marketing research and business analytics to combine the creative/business side to the quantitative/development components together. I'm currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Computer Information Systems at Boston University learning about database management and business intelligence.

Since then, I have been working at a unicorn startup company wearing the hat of a data integrity specialist, mobile release lead, software quality assurance engineer, functional tester, and also volunteer for the Employee Resource Group lead to advocate for Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) representation in the professional work environment.

I'm passionate about a lot of different things if you'd like to connect!
  - training for races and half-marathons
  - learning the cool jump rope techniques
  - solving puzzle/Rubik's cubes of all sizes
  - collecting and actually playing the Pokémon TCG
  - completing escape rooms
  - drinking and crafting cups of coffee
  - attending baseball games (a White Sox & Red Sox fan)

I like to study patterns, figure things out and solve problems. I constantly need to find mentally stimulating things. So, throw me a data problem or broken software test to debug.
