I stumbled into the software testing field after seeing how much
my husband enjoyed working as a tester. I thought it would be interesting
and challenging work with great pay. I was right. I started off
as a software test engineer at Microsoft in October 1998 as a perma-temp
working on Windows 2000 Professional and Windows 2000 Server. After
6 months, I moved to the Windows User Assistance Group. In May 2000
Microsoft hired me full-time.
I learned to do what I do by reading lots of books and just "messing
around" on my computer at home. Lots of trial and error and
personal projects.
