Hi, I'm a full stack developer with a diverse backround in computing technologies, working primarily in the broadband and casual games industries.
My technical experience is in enterprise networking, Linux system administration, build & release automation, and devops. I have also done some light database, software, and web development work.
I'm looking to expand into roles related to software development for technologies with a focus on human-centered outcomes, particularly linguistics and language learning.

My team's capstone project aims to improve a practical understanding of data privacy practices through an interactive walkthrough of common online behavior, and how those actions can be used to collect personal data.
We use a short quiz to test initial knowledge of data collection and privacy, then proceed with a simulated browsing experience to show what actions (like hovering, clicking, and scrolling) can be captured and used to measure topic engagement.
Much of the initial ideation, design, and testing was done collaboratively with the whole group, and we created a prototype demo using generative AI and implemented in React.
User research among students revealed that many had some knowledge or even concerns about data collection, but did not know details about the mechanics of how it worked, or what they could do to limit data exposure.
After our product demo was completed, we plan to continue making improvements, focusing on these items:
- Review and refine the codebase
- User Experience and accessibility improvements
- Adding elements to make the experience more engaging and interactive
- Additional demonstrations of data collection
- Detailed summary information on privacy best practices, and links/walkthroughs for settings on specific platforms
This project builds a geographically redundant, load-balanced pair of VM Linux-based web hosts running nginx, using Terraform and Google Cloud Project. This is a quick way to scaffold up a web service for lower environments and easy A/B testing by manipulating active hosts in the load balancer. This can also be customized to use your other docker images or add additional cloud components.
