I enjoy being challenged alongside a team of talented, motivated people.
I believe we must always bear in mind that processes, methodologies, and all major decisions in the SDLC should reflect the end goal of creating a high quality, high value product that the user will love.
I believe that if you treat your employees right they'll work their butts off for you, and happy employees lead to happy customers.
I believe that quality should be viewed holistically and measured by the user's experience. The incoming specs, the documentation, and everything in between affect quality.
