Location: San Francisco, California, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/andrewzhang

I graduated from Tufts University's school of engineering with a double major in computer science and mathematics and a minor in music. I have a foundation of C/C++ and Python for coding backend, and HTML/CSS, JavaScript/Typescript and React for frontend work. 

In my experience, I interned at the MGH Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging for summer 2019, where I coded in both C++ and Python to analyze data on the neural streamlines of the brain and create violin plots for visual comparisons. For summer 2020, I interned at Beacons, where I conducted data analysis and full-stack development to present the data as an interactive React map. For summer 2021, I was a UI engineer for Juniper Networks under the team of 128Technology using React and GraphQL to enhance the user interface. 

I am now working full-time at Beacons as a software engineer, and I'm excited to work with a passionate team in the content creator space!

## Work Experience
### Software Engineer @ Beacons
Jan 2022 – Present | San Francisco Bay Area

### Algorithms TA @ Tufts University
Jan 2020 – Jan 2022 | Medford, Massachusetts, United States
Teaching Assistant for Comp160 (Algorithms), one of the core requirements of the major.

### Software Engineer Intern @ Juniper Networks
Jan 2021 – Jan 2021 | Burlington, Massachusetts, United States
Working with the 128Technology team in React and GraphQL, I've worked on both frontend and backend to enhance the first-time user experience and make the UI simpler to navigate.

### Beacons Intern @ Beacons
Jan 2020 – Jan 2020 | San Francisco, California, United States
For this startup company, I conducted data analysis with SQL, Firebase, and Python to research how users can best optimize their use of the company product. I then implemented an interactive map with React that displays the user data globally.

### Undergraduate Intern @ The MGH/HST Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging
Jan 2019 – Jan 2019 | Greater Boston Area
Integrating existing code from the Freesurfer open source project, I built code in C++ to cluster neural streamlines based on physical location of the endpoints within the brain’s structures. I also compiled visual data in Python to directly compare numerical data between multiple subjects.
