I am a software engineer with a passion for modern web development and user-centric design. I currently work at Coco Robotics, where I develop a wide variety of internal and external tools. I pride myself on my ability to learn new technologies quickly and thrive in fast-paced environments. I bring strong attention to detail to every project I work on, emphasizing maintainable, modular, and well-documented code that delivers exceptional user experiences.

In my free time, I volunteer as a mentor for FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Team 294, Beach Cities Robotics. I teach high school students about robot programming, strategic analysis, and full-stack development.

Projects

Warehouse Management System

Warehouse Management System

Web app for all operations of a same-day delivery company. It provides an easy way to track and edit orders, configure vendors, update inventory, and manage billing. Vendors have their own dashboard to view all of their recent deliveries. Customers can use their tracking number to see the order status and proof of delivery. Its features utilize integrations with Shopify, Route4Me, Twilio, SendGrid, and Clerk.

ASL Survey Tool

ASL Survey Tool

Web app that hosts surveys in American Sign Language, relying entirely on videos and non-textual elements. The design incorporates color indicators that meet WCAG 2.2 and USWDS standards for non-text contrast. To evaluate the tool's usability, we conducted an unmoderated user study with 30 Deaf participants. It was used at the Symposium on AI and Sign Language Interpreting in April 2024.
