Featured Works

Built a full-stack document management system for UW Tacoma, enabling worksheet and problem lookup, creation, and generation. Reduced facilitator workflows from 20 minutes to 2 minutes per problem and weekly prep from 6 hours to 1 hour.

Led development of a beauty school LMS as both full-stack developer and technical PM. Owned the course feature end-to-end — rich media storage, progress tracking, and scoring. Shipped 10 features in 10 weeks, hitting every deadline early.

Designing a scalable, multi-stage home recommendation system leveraging TTE+ANN for candidate generation, GBDT for ranking, and LTR for fine-ranking on Zillow's 31M-row ZTRAX dataset. Automated MLOps pipelines with Airflow reduce deployment time by 75%, while Redis caching improves response time by 50%.

Built an automated S3 cost optimizer with risk scoring, rollback snapshots, and safe storage class transitions. Deployed serverless with Lambda, EventBridge, and Terraform IaC — saving $50/month in cloud costs.

Built a fully functional Unix shell from scratch in C, implementing process management, I/O redirection, piping, signal handling, and built-in commands with robust memory management.

Founded and organized UHackathon — a 100+ competitor event that became the largest hackathon south of Seattle, on just $3,500 in funding. United seven student clubs, secured sponsors and judges, and set it up to run annually.
