Collaborated with the creator of SamizdApp, a plan to bring a decentralized internet to market.- Refactored apps that enabled client to server communication without using DNS or TLS.- Improved existing microservices and built new microservices that ran on each user’s Raspberry Pi.

Novel was originally a virtual events company named Cadenza with a unique run-of-show builder. Cadenza became Novel when we pivoted to a new no-code builder that empowers creators to build interactive video journeys.- Led a small engineering team that planned and developed various features for our virtual events platform including a virtual run-of-show builder and event speaker manager.- Migrated a multi-application legacy auth system to Auth0 by researching best practices, planning MVPs to work with our existing system, and documenting a longer-term road map.- Led improvements to various development tools and processes including migrating from Postman to Insomnia and creating a new QA workflow that helped identify an additional 20 bugs per month.- Planned and led the creation of our new REST API that replaced our legacy API, utilized a microservice architecture, was built using NestJS and MikroORM, and was deployed to AWS Lambda using Serverless Framework. Focused on creating core enhancements on top of NestJS in order to optimize DX.- Led the implementation of a domain-based RBA system comprised of an auth model for our API and a permissions scheme for frontend RBA features.- Integrated a new Webflow site with our existing public platform so that both could be used under the same domain, generating 1,000 monthly page views.- Innovated the Novel Player: a new web architecture that utilizes microapps built on top of custom elements to render media paired with interactive content that has played nearly 100 video journeys for 20,000 viewers.- Researched and worked with the Cloudinary API to develop media transcoding pipelines that delivered assets optimized for our mobile player.

AOU created #Unity2020: a presidential campaign to restore patriotic, courageous & capable leadership.- Helped build an online RCV voting app that allowed 8,000+ supporters to vote in Unity's primary.- Led development of prototypes, participated in tech projects, and maintained existing infrastructure to support the growth of our organization and reach 50,000 supporters.
