• Designed a full-stack React (TypeScript) web application, later adapted into a desktop application, to automate XML file generation and minimize manual data entry.

• Developed C++ software and maintained technical documentation for next-generation aircraft platforms; automated application startup via Bash/Lua scripts; coordinated cloud migration efforts.

• Tracked project milestones across 5 student teams using spreadsheets, prepared progress reports, and escalated blockers to instructors and program leadership, received 90% on-time project delivery.

• Provided technical guidance on machine learning model development, translating complex concepts into actionable steps to unblock teams and keep projects on track.

• Led responsible AI in-class discussions, allowing students to understand bias in machine learning models and how to prevent it.

• Led end-to-end planning for a mobile application serving 2,500+ justice-impacted youth.

• Defined product scope, developed project timeline with milestone tracking, provided guidance to a 5-person design team, and reported progress against KPIs to stakeholders, enabling a 100% transition to paperless operations.

• Created the Product Requirements Document (PRD) with 12 feature specifications, delivering 175 high-fidelity screens on schedule.

• Scaled design operations by establishing a centralized Figma workspace, implementing cohesive typography and color standards that strictly aligned with existing brand guidelines to ensure 100% visual consistency.

• Conducted user interviews with 20+ youth and case managers, directed the synthesis of user feedback through affinity mapping, transforming raw usability data into prioritized design iterations and product improvements.

• Designed an innovative interface exploring new, practical ways designers could utilize generative AI in creative workflows and delivered a working Figma prototype.

• Conducted user research based on UI/UX principles and wireframe testing with peers, leading to validated design choices and higher usability in the final prototype.
