Activity
Dave Harrison received his first 'testing assignment' in the late 80's, and has been working in software testing since the early 1990's. Early projects in his career involved working on the first macintosh laptops and products that facilitated 'telecommuting' along with early versions of web browsers from Netscape and Microsoft. He then grew his career by pursuing leadership opportunities with Disney's e-commerce division, global travel brands, and some government contracting in healthcare techology. Dave has also been a key contributor to six successful startup companies. For the past nine years, he has led the software testing practice and an early stage quality coaching effort for one of the largest Fintechs in the world. Dave has attended Test Bash conferences since 2016, giving 99 second talks and helping with onsite and online discussion groups.
