summary

I am a full-stack developer, based in Northern VA, with a deep passion for my work and the ability to quickly adapt to new and innovative technologies. In fact, I am most fulfilled while working on projects that force me out of my comfort zone into unknown waters. In my experience as a student at the University of Virginia and a professional software engineer, I have worked on a variety of projects, ranging from mobile applications to video games to custom language interpreters, with a focus on web application development. I take great pride in my work and my ability to collaborate efficiently and effectively with my teammates, and I'm sure that I would be a great fit for any software development company that shares those values.

work experience

Software Engineer

BTI360, Ashburn, VA, June 2016 – Present
At BTI360, I have worked on a variety of web applications in Java and AngularJS using the Spring framework, as well as a native iOS application. I was also tasked with enhancing the careers page on the company website by integrating a third party applicant tracking system and improving the UI for potential candidates. In pursuit of this goal, I gained experience with WordPress development and CSS. Furthermore, I became experienced with jQuery as it was necessary to dynamically generate and validate application forms from JSON.

 

Software Engineer internship

During my internship at BTI360, I worked with four other developers on two separate projects: the first was to add additional capabilities to an analytical web application in the cyber data domain; and the second was to develop a business management web application from the ground up. From this work, I gained experience with the software development lifecycle as a whole, as well as with specific technologies and methodologies, including the following: frontend and backend web development, persistent data storage using MySQL, big data search and indexing using Apache Solr, agile and test-driven development, and public speaking/demoing of software.
