Software engineer who seeks challenges, solves problems, and thrives on innovation. Energetic and passionate, with an Electrical and Computer Engineering/Computer Science degree from Duke University.
Added new parameters and settings to the core Portfolio Rebalancing product. Enabled migration to auto-populate databases at service launch time, created custom loading of attributes and files for clients, and added sorting, filtering, and searching capabilities for new attributes.
Troubleshooted and resolved slow query issues by introducing SQL indexing and removing dangling associations between entities that had been removed from the database, shaving minutes off of the time taken to refresh data from ground to cloud.
Reduced the number of entities being stored in the cache by modifying association logic.
Created a Jenkins job to automatically create databases and copy contents between environments in Kubernetes and Swarm to greatly improve development velocity.
Designed and constructed creative engineering solutions. Led a wide range of
clients through the design process from concept to product. These clients
consisted of students, Duke Hospital staff, and University Researchers. Notable
past projects include third world organ transport devices and machinery parts.
Organized and taught courses on CAD, 3D printing, and CNC machining.
Oversaw the world’s largest 3D printing bank in higher education.
Assist students and researchers in optimizing projects using 3D scanners, 3D printers (FDM Ultimakers and SLA Formlabs, 3DSystems, Markforged, Iris, and Stratasys), laser cutters (Epilog CO2), and CNC mills (ShopBot, Tormach, and Carvey)
Designed and implemented a full stack web app to deliver real time NLP-driven insights based on user queries to PrecisionLender's AI client.
Created wireframes of the UI which was then developed using TypeScript, Knockout.js, HTML, and CSS to be a responsive, dynamic, and accessible experience. Used AJAX calls to retrieve JSON files that were parsed and reformatted in the C# backend.
