When I worked with her, she approached any problems we encountered with patience and persistence. She can break down large, overwhelming issues into smaller, manageable parts and maintain a calm demeanor until the issue is solved. With her number of years in the industry and knowledge of QA tools and processes, I do think she would be an asset to any development team.
