In this role I’ve engineered and maintained HIPAA-compliant B2B healthcare SaaS solutions serving mission-critical hospital systems with C#, .Net, TypeScript, React, Mumps (NoSQL), and Git.
My proudest project was when I designed and deployed a data-driven algorithmic model for surgery scheduling, reducing patient wait times and increasing operating room utilization for 2M+ procedures monthly – approximately 47% of all surgical volume in the United States. This involved weighing the different options for creating the model, gathering relevant factors from clinical end-users, and implementing the model within existing surgical case workflows for effortless adoption.
Another accomplishment I’m proud of was where I built and launched a real-time patient bed tracking tool that improved efficiency, reduced errors, and streamlined real-time communication for over 500,000 hospital beds per month. This allowed surgcial pre-op/post-op/PACU units to plan out their patient flow, documenting future plans in a way that was accessible to the patient’s entire care team.
I’ve built up my knowledge of surgical workflows and processes surrounding the perioperative experience to assist with developing new enhancements and working with the software as a user would. I share this knowledge through internal wikis and have helped newer staff learn the areas.
Software Mentor
FIRST Robotics Competition, August 2017 – June 2021
“The FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) is an international high school robotics competition. Each year, teams of high school students, coaches, and mentors work during a six-week period to build robots capable of competing in that year’s game that weigh up to 125 pounds (57 kg). Robots complete tasks such as scoring balls into goals, placing inner tubes onto racks, hanging on bars, and balancing robots on balance beams. The game, along with the required set of tasks, changes annually”

My responsibilities included teaching students about software development, designing written documentation for robotic systems, organizing programming contributions using version control (Git/GitHub), and participating in SCRUM-like practices such as daily stand-up meetings and project retrospectives.
