Led development of a UI application to modernize authentication via OAuth 2.0 for a federal agency. The UI application was built with React, TypeScript, React Query, and Mock Service Worker. Led engineering on a project to upgrade an existing front-end for a large medical supplier's e-commerce website. The project consisted of making the existing legacy UI mobile-friendly and responsive while also fixing dozens of accessibility defects. In only a few weeks, we were able to make the site almost fully responsive as well as fixing several major accessibility defects. Led a team of engineers maintaining an application for a Fortune 100 media company that helps account executives visualize data of automotive sales volume. The application's UI was written in Angular 5 and TypeScript, while the back-end consisted of AWS Lambda functions for the API written in Node.js (also with TypeScript), and an AWS Aurora DB for storage. The application cut the time it took to create a sales presentation from weeks to days.
