List of courses completed
Contributor on Microsoft Viva Connections. This was done with the Adaptive Card Extensions library in TypeScript that was then bundled into a Sharepoint package and integrated into Microsoft Teams. My work was focused around adding “cards” to allow users to interact with campus tools all in one place. At the end of my time at Microsoft I was working on implementing AI/OCR receipt parsing for automated expense reimbursement using Azure Document Intelligence.
Contributor on BigQuery row-level security for the BigQuery Data Governance team. My primary area of work was changes to BigQuery’s Java based IAM service. I also made changes to Google Cloud console front-end using Angular, and lower layers such as Dremel internals in C++.
Contributor on a Azure Based Inspection Management and Asset Tracking platform which consisted of a mobile app and web app, as well as a very simple desktop client. I added several new services and features to the platform using Azure Functions, Service Bus, Cosmos DB, and various other Azure features. Most of the applications were written in C# and Typescript, with Angular as the primary framework for client facing applications. I also worked on smaller internal projects using React with NodeJS.
Contributor for Direct Supply’s main .NET eCommerce platform. During Summer 2015, I participated in an intern project to develop a website for one of Direct Supply's supplier sites. This project was my favorite part of working at Direct Supply, as we got to start from scratch on our own project. I lead a small team that created the backend REST API for this project using Python and Django.
My main responsibility at Fay was providing helpdesk support, but I also assisted with server management and various other IT responsibilities. Near the end of my internship I deployed a secure mobile app program which allowed the company to maintain internal devices. This position also provided a great learning opportunity for myself as my manager provide me time to learn about certain technologies or assisted me directly when available.
Using a small LED touchscreen and a Raspberry Pi, I developed an app to allow controlling my apartment’s Philips Hue lights, display time and weather. I am also working on trying to control the thermostat (through the Nest API) and hook up moisture sensors to my plants to give a quick readout of which plants need to be watered.
Built a simple API mocking tool that could be input with configurable JSON to test various features, such as failing on first few calls to try retry logic, or delaying a response to test timeouts. Allows for mocking a single endpoint but then passing through every other call.
This project is private, feel free to ask to see source code though!
A friendly Discord bot that was really for a fun project to do among friends. Was good for teaching some friends how to program and use the Discord API, as well as testing some Typescript techniques.
