What motivates you to be a Cypress Ambassador?
I was motivated to be a part of a growing community. I wanted to be able to experiment with new features and connect with wider cypress experts.
How do you currently help others that are either using Cypress or interested in using Cypress?
Support to unpack all the great things cypress has to offer to fellow testers through chat and community events.
What is your favorite Cypress feature?
1. Cy.intercept() - how easy it makes intercept requests and response.
2. Cypress test runner - how easy it makes to run and debug a test.
3. Plugins - how easy it makes to integrate with other available plugins.
What is your favorite "Cypress Best Practice" and why?
My favorite best practice is caching and re-using session across tests: https://docs.cypress.io/api/commands/session
I am also a fan of the ability to retry tests which saves time and shows tests that absolutely need our attention: https://docs.cypress.io/guides/core-concepts/retry-ability

I love playing badminton and spending time with my family.
What is one professional milestone you are proud of? (an accomplishment, celebration, recognition, etc.)
Leading my testing team to successfully migrate complex in-house platforms to the cloud that involves multiple internal and external stakeholders.
