I was a part of a Product Development team developing Charge Capture features on top of our existing EHR Solution. In this role I got to work as a Full-Stack developer, focusing on building out data pipelines, designing databases, and implementing UI to improve the Charge experience for both Revenue Cycle Analysts and Nurses. Some other projects I worked on included revamping an out-of-date Nurse Tasklist feature, designing, implementing, and deploying internal tools to improve… Show more I was a part of a Product Development team developing Charge Capture features on top of our existing EHR Solution.

I worked with a team of graduate and undergraduate students under the guidance of Steven Dow, Ph. D., an Associate Professor of Cognitive Science at UC San Diego, in conducting research surround social technologies and human-computer interaction. I was primarily a developer in a team focusing on developing ProtoTeams (www.prototeams.com/home), a tool for supporting group interaction in co-located settings. Throughout development, I worked in small teams of 2-3 people, as well as working alone… Show more I worked with a team of graduate and undergraduate students under the guidance of Steven Dow, Ph.

I was primarily a developer in a team focusing on developing ProtoTeams (www.prototeams.com/home), a tool for supporting group interaction in co-located settings. Throughout development, I worked in small teams of 2-3 people, as well as working alone for periods of time. The app was built with the Meteor platform, and I learned React and Javascript in order to build the mobile web-application. While I was involved with the front-end and user-experience development, I also built most of the back-end functionality for the application, designed the database in MongoDB, produced APIs to retrieve data from the system for research purposes, and worked on the deployment of the application using Heroku servers. I also contributed to analyzing the experiment data and preparing research papers surrounding this system. Show less

In the Fall 2018 quarter, I tutored for CSE 100 - Advanced Data Structures, under the instruction of Leonard Porter, PhD. These responsibilities included holding extended weekly Lab Hours to help students debug and understand C++ programming assignments relating to Data Structures as well as grading homework and exams. Then, from the Spring 2019 to the Winter 2020 quarters, I have been tutoring for CSE 100 - Advanced Data Structures again, under the instruction of Paul YJ Cao, PhD. I have been appointed the Head Tutor position since the Fall 2019 quarter, which comes with additional responsibilities of designing programming assignments and developing automated grading scripts and pipelines to grade student's programming assignments. In my final quarter of college, I was a part of the teaching staff for a lower-division course, CSE 12 - Data Structures in Java, as a Head Tutor. Some technologies and skills utilized for these responsibilities include Python, Java, the Factory Design Pattern, Docker, Github, and Hackmd. Show less

At Aruba, I worked with the Cloud DevOps team in Agile Software Development. I was tasked to develop various automation tools to manage the automatic production and delivery of cost and usage reports on thousands of resources hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). To accomplish this, I had to familiarize myself with AWS and utilize the AWS CLI and AWS SDK for Python. I used the AWS SDK for Go and AWS Lambda to integrate my work with the team, as well as Jenkins for automatic deployment… Show more At Aruba, I worked with the Cloud DevOps team in Agile Software Development.
