Bio
Kyle Carey
Tomohiro is a great asset to any team. I had the pleasure of working with and training him up through the ranks over many years, eventually to my equal. In the often stressful environment of QA he is able to adapt to the ever changing dynamics of a busy product slate.
Paul Carrion
Tomo is a very dedicated worker who always brought 110% to the table. I worked along-side Tomo on several projects within TRG and could easily see that his overall knowledge and skills led him to the position of Platform Lead. He is a great leader and mentor to fellow colleges and is a great example of what a tester should be as well as a well rounded lead. I would be more than happy to work with Tomo on any given project and would highly recommend him as a valuable resource to any employer.
