About Cassandra

Picture of Cassandra HL

 

Hey!  That’s me ^^^

 

My pronouns are she / her or they / them.

 

I’m a Quality Coach, Certified Scrum Master and UX enthusiast, with a past life in IT recruitment, sales and banking.  I’m very passionate about all things testing and software production and have also performed the roles of Scrum Master / Agile Coach, Product Owner and Business Analyst.

 

I started this blog as a way to reflect on my own thoughts, share them with others, and learn from those who are kind enough to comment and share their own experiences with me.

 

I also speak at international conferences and events.  It’s really wonderful to have audience members approach me with their feedback and stories.  I love being part of the community and hope that I can inspire others to do great things.

More about me:

  • I like problem solving and finding out how things work
  • I was 31 before I ever tasted coffee
  • I like honest feedback and constructive criticism
  • I can’t swim
  • I like to be proven wrong / have my mind changed
  • I believe that value and meaning are completely contextual, which proves interesting in both software production and life in general
