The opportunity to assess enterprise web and mainframe applications, turn test findings into practical improvements, and support capacity planning aligns closely with the work I have pursued through performance testing projects. I am especially interested in applying that experience to the systems and planning needs of a federal technology program. In my performance testing capstone, I evaluated a multi-tier student services application during peak registration scenarios. I built LoadRunner scripts, measured response times , throughput , and errors against service objectives, and used AppDynamics and Splunk observations to isolate database query and application server constraints. I presented tuning recommendations with a concise results dashboard and modeled projected registration demand from repeated test cycles. My university lab and course projects add experience with load, stress, and endurance testing in AWS and Azure, repeatable performance baselines , and capacity estimates based on historical run data. I have translated sample SLAs, KPIs, and non-functional requirements into measurable checks, and tested both web applications and simulated mainframe transaction flows . My bachelor's degree in Information Systems and AWS and Azure fundamentals certifications complement this hands-on foundation. I am a U.S. citizen able to obtain Public Trust and am available for five-day onsite work in Lanham. I would value the opportunity to contribute my LoadRunner, monitoring, analysis, and technical communication experience to Northstar's performance engineering work. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to discussing how my project experience can support Northstar's performance testing and capacity planning needs.
