• Oversee the frontend architecture and development of the Plantbid SaaS platform.
• Work with the product team to implement new features and improve existing ones.
• Create and maintain a component library to be used across the platform.
• Create internal tool to manage and track plant lists for the sales team.

This is a small game prototype I'm working on as a case study of designing and implementing games in the Godot engine using a component-based approach.

Essentially, I can compose various components together which contain behavioral logic or modify data to create various games and interactive experiences.

This prototype is a proof of concept to help inform my future projects. Check back regularly to see it progress.

• Help with client engagements, focusing on resolving legacy bugs and implementing requested features for web and mobile applications.
• Specialize in frontend development using React for web applications and React Native for mobile applications.
• Manage backend systems by implementing new API endpoints and creating queries to retrieve data required by frontend components.
• Mentor and coach junior developers via one-on-ones and code reviews.

This is a small app I created as an exercise to learn about some of the latest features of Remix. It is a simple app that allows users to login and track expenses.

Users can then view their expenses in a list or view some simple analytics about them.

Feel free to create a user to give it a whirl, or you can login as a test user.

Credentials for test user:

• Worked on the ConversationKit team to improve developer experience and automate deployments.
• Completed feature work for the main ConversationKit application by implementing designs on the frontend using Vue.js.
• Completed feature work for the backend to extend the application's API.

• Worked on internal company web applications.
• Created Node services which talked to a .NET Core backend.
• Created microsites using React that consumed Node and .NET microservices.

• Migrated parts of legacy e-commerce site to modern SPA architecture using Vue.js.
• Used GraphQL to communicate with GCP-hosted microservices.
• Created internal Vue component library which had an emphasis on accessibility.

• Helped implement core systems for local event management startup.
• Created backend REST API using Node and Express for web app to consume.
• Created frontend using custom React components.

This is a small prototype done over Ludum Dare 43 weekend.

You are trying to get data through a computer. You must conserve your resources while you try to get to the portal on each level. Try to get as much data through as possible.

Passing over a colored tile will deplete that corresponding resource. If you pass over a purple tile, both resources will be depleted. Data is consumed with each movement as well.

The game ends when you lose all of one resource (blue and red bars), or all of your data (green bar), or reach the final data portal.

Careful though, the board updates with each move! The logic for the board updates follows Conway’s Game of Life. You can interact with the Game of Life simulation by either left or right clicking to place a blue or red tile on the board respectively. One tile placement can have a huge impact on the board.

• Worked on consulting projects for various financial institutions.
• Created prototype banking mobile app using React Native library.
• Used .NET Core to create backend API to be used by React-based frontend.

• Created data dashboards and other applications to help clients visualize data.
• Worked mostly on frontend components, but also helped create services and managed databases for these projects.
• Used React to create reusable components powered by D3 for data visualization.
• Greatly improved performance of data visualization animations for larger datasets.

• Helped fix bugs that were found by QA team in flagship software, Oncochart.
• Implemented small, new features requested by users and management team.
• Worked on web app to enhance the experience of seminar attendees.

• Participated in multiple volunteer internships as a lab and programming assistant for my professor, Dr. Brent Eskridge.
