My technical portfolio is diverse, including developing robust supply chain tracking solutions for major fitness brands using Python, Django/DRF and Elasticsearch, and redesigning an interface for AI-driven gun violence prevention with React.js. My expertise extends to healthcare manufacturing equipment tracking with an integrated use of Vue.js for frontend development.Recently, I led the development of a mobile app for a prominent state university designed to enhance student access to mental health resources, utilizing Flutter for its cross-platform capabilities and Django for backend stability. My role also involves advanced DevOps practices with Docker and AWS to ensure scalable, secure solutions.A critical component of my job is the effective communication of complex technical details to non-technical stakeholders, ensuring clarity and actionable insights. I have quickly adapted to leadership roles in critical situations, notably when senior engineers departed, ensuring project continuity and client confidence.My commitment to excellence is evident in my dedication to the software development lifecycle, adherence to agile methodologies, and a focus on writing clean, maintainable code. I am proficient with modern development tools and practices, including extensive use of Git and various CI/CD systems, which bolster my ability to deliver projects that meet rigorous, enterprise-grade standards.Through collaborative teamwork, ranging from small groups to large multi-disciplinary teams, I have consistently demonstrated my capability to meet diverse client needs and drive successful project outcomes. My goal is always to develop software that is not only effective but also sustainable and easy to evolve, reflecting best practices in a rapidly advancing field. Show less

As a presenter I deliver live presentations (5-80 minutes, usually one hour) to audiences as large as 210 (general public as well as K-12) to communicate scientific points and accompany full-dome films or other learning activities. As a part of the process I collaborate with fellow planetarians to create and develop scripts which are augmented by interactive visualizations and other media on the dome or in the classroom to achieve innovating immersive, educational experiences to engage… Show more As a presenter I deliver live presentations (5-80 minutes, usually one hour) to audiences as large as 210 (general public as well as K-12) to communicate scientific points and accompany full-dome films or other learning activities.

As a way to maintain engagement and continue to educate when COVID-19 closed Fiske's doors, I co-created and currently co-host the official podcast of the Fiske Planetarium: A View From Earth. On the show, my co-host and I interview working researchers and students from the Colorado community to learn about their work and put a face (and voice) to the mind-blowing research being done in our backyard!

The Learning Assistant program at CU Boulder employs undergraduate students to assist course instructional teams in creating optimal learning environments for students. As an LA, I facilitated discussions among groups of students in a variety of classroom settings that encourage active engagement.Specifically, I worked with the Department of Computer Science in "Starting Computing" leading recitations, running review sessions for exams, and holding office hours to consult students on… Show more The Learning Assistant program at CU Boulder employs undergraduate students to assist course instructional teams in creating optimal learning environments for students. As an LA, I facilitated discussions among groups of students in a variety of classroom settings that encourage active engagement.Specifically, I worked with the Department of Computer Science in "Starting Computing" leading recitations, running review sessions for exams, and holding office hours to consult students on their weekly assignments and final projects.Additionally, I worked with the Department of Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences in their "Introductory Astronomy" course directing weekly labs and overseeing and guiding nighttime observing sessions at the Sommers-Bausch Observatory.Finally, as an LA Mentor, I met with a group of mentees (first-time LAs) on a weekly basis for a semester to support their journey as young educators in their pedagogy course as well as their LA-student interactions.
