In this role, I worked with a team to develop a comprehensive website for the Land Conservancy SLO Octagon Barn, significantly streamlining the client booking process through enhanced features like document uploads and improved communication channels. I worked on frontend using Next.js and Tailwind CSS, while also assisting in the creation of a scalable backend with Next.js API routes and managing a MongoDB database for efficient data storage and retrieval. Additionally, I implemented automated client email notifications using API routes integrated with frameworks like Resend. This project provided me with valuable hands-on experience in prototyping, modern web frameworks, and best practices in full-stack development.

In this role, I research and evaluate AI/ML tools to enhance the productivity and efficiency of my team. I focus on applying technologies such as LLMs, embeddings, and agentic retrieval augmented generation to workflows within our organization. My work involves comparing commercial AI platforms and building prototypes that streamline workflows while meeting security and performance needs.

I work with my team to identify bottlenecks and develop solutions that integrate with internal tools. This includes experimenting with chatbot frameworks, embedding models, and secure vector databases. Through this work, I’ve gained hands on experience with prompt engineering, cloud-based AI hosting, and best practices in responsible AI tool adoption.

As President, I led the organization with a focus on strategic planning and event execution. I set schedules, delegated responsibilities to board members, and served as the primary liaison between the CSA, other student organizations, and the Associated Student Inc. My vice presidents and I came up with 2 large scale events that we added to CSA's normal yearly calendar. Additionally, I planned and coordinated external collaborative events with CSAs from other schools, ensuring that our club not only ran smoothly but also expanded its impact across campuses.
