Sandbox @ Northeastern
- Sandbox is Northeastern's student-led software consultancy where we develop software for clients from the university community
- I am currently leading a group of 7 people (5 developers and 2 designers) to build a full-stack web application for a Northeastern professor and his Merit Committee.
- This application is a performance review tool to be used for documenting and comparing faculty performance within the Arts and Design department. GitHub repo
Project Lead

- Led a rewrite that migrated our codebase from React and NestJS to NextJS because maintaining two standalone applications was too time consuming and slowed down development
- Conducting design and code reviews to implement new features, and add documentation to existing functionality
- Create agile-style tickets for developers to prioritize and effectively distribute development tasks
- Have bi-weekly meetings with our professor client to discuss potential features, ask him questions on the design and interface and update him on development

- Wrote efficient API routes to perform add and update user, activity and performance on a Postgres database using Prisma ORM

TAMID @ Northeastern
December 2021 - May 2022
- TAMID is a national consulting club that connects early-stage startups to university students
- My team and I worked with Presently, a NY-based startup focused on building end-to-end platforms to make picking and giving gifts easier
- I added animations, tooltips and other visual features to giftpicker.io (one of Presently's products) by writing new components in their React codebase, for my first deliverable
- I conceptualized and developed a web app that matched users for a "secret santa" style gift exchange, in a team of 15 developers, for my second deliverable
- For this, I wrote backend serverless functions that used k-NN clustering algorithms which paired users based on a list of common interests
