as a project for my human-computer interaction class, my group designed and prototyped an app called forager. with the explosion of popularity foraging has gained in recent years, we wanted to make the entire process simpler and lower the barrier of entry for new foragers. forager gives mushroom foragers a smoother and more fulfilling experience. you can read more in our blog post. this project was awarded "overall best design" in our human-computer interaction course.

an interactive information web app, created for the Client-Side Web Development course in the iSchool at the university of washington. This web app functions as an educational Java linter that checks the style of users' input Java code and inform users of what the style errors are with suggestions on how to fix them. This app is built around the style guidelines for CSE 14X (Intro to computer programming 1 & 2 at the university of washington) with those students as the primary audience, but should be a helpful resource for any novice Java learners.

i created a portfolio site from scratch for my wonderful partner, sophie larsen, a graduate student in mathematics at the university of illinois urbana/champagne

i work as a teaching assistant for cse 142 (intro to computer programming 1) at the university of washington. one project i did as a teaching assistant was to improve our introductory java style guide by rewriting it and formatting it as a web document that would be easier to access and read (it's also reformatted on the course site).

Readycipe was created as a final project for my intro to informatics class to streamline the food-making process and make cooking more accessible for lower-income people working on tighter budgets with less free time for shopping and cooking. We created a prototype of a machine that would facilitate the streamlining of the food-preparation process for users. I created the UI for the machine and the basics of a backend.

note: this project was developed with certain hardware in mind, and it's only made to display well on a portrait computer screen. sorry mobile users!

I designed a new, updated website for my hometown mosque. I basically grew up there and their old website was incredibly outdated, so I volunteered to design a new one to update their web presence. It's built on WordPress to allow for easy upkeep, and I implemented a self-updating table of prayer times.

SNAPTrack is an app i helped develop for the dubhacks 2018 hackathon. we created it with the intention to help people who use SNAP benefits by providing them with information to help them make the most of their SNAP benefits. it's taking the place of a now defunct service that informed people about what they could use SNAP benfits on, while also providing more specific services; store and item specific information about where they can use their benefits, what they can use their benefits for, and scraping user receipt data to better flesh out the database of SNAP eligible items/places and locating stores where users can use SNAP benefits. i created the front-end of the project.

the final project for my Technical Foundations of Informatics class, we put together a set of data visualizations and analytics about Seattle and National crime data using R and shinyapps. I implemented the arson data tab as well as styling the entire site.

note: the API for the arson data has changed since this project was done and unfortunately the arson page no longer loads properly as a result of that change

I taught a weekly quiz section of ~10-25 students for various courses in the Paul G. Allen School of Computer science. I taught intro to computer programming I (cse 142) for seven quarters, intro to computer programming II (cse 143)for one quarter, and programming languages (cse 341) for one quarter. My job as a TA has included teaching a weekly quiz section, holding office hours, grading homework, quizzes, and exams, creating materials and resources for students, and t=creating testing structures for student programs.

I taught bi-weekly mentoring sessions for a small group of middle- and high-school students. An 8-week program in which we covered basic skills in web development (HTML, CSS, JS) and data programming (in Python). Students went from learning basic syntax at the beginning of the program to developing their own small projects by the end of the program

I did fullstack development on a new feature for an internal EC2 insight tool. I designed the feature using Sketch and wrote a Java backend that connected to an existing frontend built using React and Redux. I also worked on and added features to said frontend. The project was developed and deployed through AWS

I maintained and updated mass spectrometry contaminant databases to provide a higher level of precision to mass spectroscopy analysis results. I also worked on debugging, generating test data sets, and testing of new mass spectrometer data analysis application Formularity to ensure reproducible and accurate measurements
