At CirrusMD I co-led a research effort on using tools such as Mirth to integrate with other healthcare applications. Integrated our web application with Health Gorilla using their FHIR R4 APIs for easy data sharing to an HIE clearing house. Moved our developer documentation from a 3rd party hosted site to GitHub pages providing cost savings for the company. Participate in a hackathon integrating Slack to our application which allowed patients to talk to providers from an application of their choice. Worked with a small team doing patent research and building cases for potential patents for our application.

Languages/Frameworks/Tools: Ruby on Rails, Redis, JavaScript (Rhino) for Mirth, Java for Mirth, Postgres, AWS

Extra learning: Attend RubyConf 2021 to get more integrated with the Ruby community. Reading books such as Effective Testing with RSpec 3 and Practical Object-Oriented Design. Started to delve into the React world for front end development. As well as some venturing into Go.

Languages: Java / JavaScript

Frameworks/Applications: Mirth

Databases: MSSQL / Postgres

Major Contributions:

Built a custom Java library to integrate an application called Mirth into Git (utilizing the JGit Java library, for version control in Azure DeOps.

I started my career with Community Health Systems providing support for HIM Applications as well as implementing Product/Project Management tactics for transcription based applications with Nuance, M*Modal, Carestream, and several other vendors. After a year working with Community Health Systems, I transitioned to the HL7 Integration team to further my knowledge in hospital workflow by providing support for both Mirth Connect and Rhapsody HL7 interfaces as well as development in both Mirth and Rhapsody. I collaborated with several different teams and team members daily in assuring proper support on HL7 interface issues are being addressed. Areas of work:
