Helped teach the now-infamous Stanford class on designing persuasive, viral applications for Facebook. The class was led by BJ Fogg and Dave McClure. What started as an innocent class teaching persuasive technology quickly turned into a Silicon Valley style incubator with companies and individuals like Facebook, MySpace, Google, Mike Maples, and Saar Gur all vying for speaking time. In 10 weeks, the students built 40+ applications, reached 20M+ users on Facebook, and generated more than $1M+ in revenue through advertising, acquisitions, and starting companies out of the class.Class URL: http://www.stanford.edu/group/captology/cgi-bin/facebook/

Provided various types of Internet analyses and presented the learnings for a number of 3 letter agencies. Developed toolsets for critical point identification on both a physical level (i.e. identifying colocation centers) and logical level (i.e. assessing both layer 3 and layer 4 protocols). Created new analysis techniques and methodologies using open source data collection and data mining (employing programming languages like Perl and PHP). Utilized my experience as an analyst to lead a team of two engineers to develop a reporting dashboard on-time and within budget.

As a college intern, prototyped and productionalized the company's first Parenthood Plus web platform aimed to help at-risk pre and post natal mothers create a digital support system. The application was built on a LAMP stack.
