 Door System: Coded a cross-platform(iOS,Android;MVVM) mobile application in
Xamarin.Forms (C#) to take advantage of custom hardwarethat allows employees to unlock
and enter the building.Utilized JSON serialization and AJAX requests to communicate with
the backend server. Modified the server’s (.NET) API to return reports generated by door
events and retrieve Active Directory user information to providecontext. Builta web
frontend (.NET Razor, AngularJS; MVC) that identifies administrators via ActiveDirectory and
allows them to set persistentinformation and receive time-sensitivealerts based on unusual
activity.Employed OAuth Token/User trackingin order to provide access control to different
parts of the webfront.

improve security in the office. Developed an understandingof Network Structure, Static IPs
and their significance.Wrotean informational documentdescribinghowto set up and use
the system.
 Other: Used Agile methodologies. Learned about device provisioningand publishingprofiles.
Established communication between various devices and platforms. Collaborated with
coworkers usingSlack,Git, and Google Documents. Used JIRA for ticket tracking,BitBucket
as a VCS platform, and other Atlassian servicesto improve productivity.

using the Swift 2.0 languageand Xcode to build a photo editing app from the ground-up.
 Computer Organization: Developed multipleprograms in ARM Assembly exploringconcepts
such as FileI/O,Control Structures and Branch Evaluation,Single- and Double-precision
numbers, and Opcode-specific systemfunctions

2.  Systems Programming/Algorithm Analysis: Exploration of advanced data structures such as
the various types of Linked Lists (Doubly Linked, Circular,Stacks,Deques,and Queues),
Binary Search Trees, Hash Maps/Tables,and Arraylists in C;Algorithm Analysis in Java
