as a part of Intuit's Technology Innovation Group, spent time researching and implementing prototype technologies to present to business units as options for Intuit to expand business into. Specifically worked on a digital pen integration (remember this was 2009) with Intuit's Quickbase database, including extensive work in Java, as well as batch scripting, AJAX, javascript with jQuery, and regular expressions. In a short time, I was able to take the product from a blank slate to a fully automated working prototype & demo.
