At Haas School of Business, I work on developing a responsive website that can enhance the user experience on mobile devices. I work with many javascript libraries such as Underscore and Hubspot's API to deliver code that can be maintained in the future. My efforts at Haas are to also deliver higher conversion rates by making the experience for users more intuitive. While working at Haas, I have learned extensively about best practices and have tried to employ some of these practices by refactoring code where it was needed to modularize and encapsulate core components.In addition, I am also working to produce data and information on Haas applicants and users of the website. My work tries to create persona profiles that give the marketing team insight on their targeted users.

At MobiTV, I worked as an android developer to create a multi-media application that will connect your mobile device to your home-screen TV and ensure a smooth, elegant, and hassle-free experience for users who want to watch TV on the go or in the comfort of their home. The job required me to interact with Mobi TV's extensive REST API and connection protocols. I needed a deep understanding of Android's asynchronous libraries, database queries, and core user interfaces to utilize the full power of Android OS to create a fast and robust application that can enhance the mobile and TV experience.
