Led multiple high-impact projects, including the internal Global Mapping interface - a tool used to match internal database information to the metadata of high-level clients (e.g., Disney, HBO, Fox...). We successfully launched this application and trained over 450 mapping associates from a system built on Java Swing and Relay systems to a React front-end connected to a Cassandra and Elastic Search backend.

As a Product Owner with Gracenote I oversaw the development of several web applications showcasing the broad databases the company offers to potential clients. In this position I both developed and maintained communications between our scrum team and company stakeholders. With my technical knowledge I could quickly understand potential blockers and time-constraints and address them before they created problems for our deliverable deadlines.

I was brought onto the Gracenote development team to rebuild the Gracenote Showcase application from scratch. The Showcase demonstrates Gracenote’s expansive movie, TV, and music databases and is an important part of the company’s annual presentation at CES. I was given complete control over the project and eventually worked as a tech lead when we brought on additional developers in the weeks leading up to CES 2016. Currently I maintain the site and work with a team of designers and developers to brainstorm new and useful functionality.
