Everyday duties involved development on our in-house simulation software. Most of the software is written using .NET and C#. Tasks involved feature development, optimizations, and resolving bugs. Some of the more unique tasks include improving the software's persistor, redesigning the map tile download system, and doing SQL server data validation.Contract Projects:HP Pump Integration:Worked on an HP contract to integrate new pump hardware into an existing system.

Intern Software Engineer with Intel in Hillsboro, Oregon.My internship was spent working on a networking project. The goal of the project was to take Rsyslog, a peer-to-peer logging system, and Rabbitmq, a publisher-subscriber network protocol, and link them together. This way logging data could be sent to a master computer and pushed to the Rabbitmq server and to the correct subscribers to catch problems early.

Intern Embedded Software Engineer for Daimler Trucks North America in Portland, Oregon.My internship was spent creating middleware for an ARM microcontroller that would allow any other project to use the CAN and LIN communication protocols. This involved embedding programming, soldering, reading data sheets, and even using an oscilloscope for board testing.
