I mostly work on the backend of our two SaaS products, primarily coding in Go and C# and using a PostgreSQL database, a Redis cache, Docker to containerize our various services, and gRPC to communicate between them. Occasionally, I help out on the frontend as well where I've used the framework Vue and its state manager, Vuex/Pinia.Here are a few of my accomplishments at FreightWaves:- Early on, I added a feature to one of our products that allows users to edit files they had uploaded through the UI. I got to "own" this project completely on both the front and back ends which was very satisfying.- I rebuilt a file uploading/validation service we had been using to increase the size of files we are able to process. This involved moving logic found in old Python (using pandas) and C# code into Go; setting up new schema in Postgres and writing a few database functions; introducing gRPC streaming calls between services in our backend; updating our version of Go so we could use generics; writing Docker files; updating github workflow files; working with Elasticsearch queries; and eventually migrating older files to use the new system and retiring old services. More recently, I added websocket endpoints to the backend to improve the UX and remove the next bottleneck limiting upload sizes.- I worked on a feature that allows users to tailor an analysis they run to include organization-specific calculations based on fuel rates. This involved building a new service from scratch; using Go's C-bindings to convert pdf to jpeg; and making calls to GCP's storage service.- Lately, I've been looking into ways we can improve our deployment pipeline, currently a complex web of github workflow files in various repos that trigger each other, build images, update helm charts, and eventually result in things making it to GKE.- I have also hunted down and destroyed many bugs, reviewed PRs, and written Jira tickets.

This was a three-year postdoc, including research and teaching, with the Mathematics Department. My research is in extremal problems in graph theory and combinatorics.I taught the following courses: Discrete Math, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, Error-Correcting Codes and Cryptography, Combinatorics, and an independent study in Quantum Computing.I also evaluated poster presentations for the Vanderbilt Undergraduate Research Fair, presented possible undergraduate research projects at Vanderbilt's Scientific Immersion and Mentorship Annual Research Match, organized the Vanderbilt Graph Theory and Combinatorics Seminar for the Spring and Fall 2019 semesters, organized (with Lauren Ruth) Quantum Computation seminar in Spring 2020, and mentored three undergraduate research projects in graph theory that together involved five students.
