About
Hello!
I am a fourth-year Informatics student at the University of Washington, with a passion for the intersection between people and technology. My expertise lies in IT, data analytics, and project management. I have industry experience in IT support and Python scripting, and I have hands-on experience with React development, NLP, and agile methodology.
After graduation, I hope to work in the information technology field. I am hoping to gain industry experience in technology consulting, development, and project management.
What Service Do I Provide?
I utilize my collaboration and customer service skills to interact with customers and work toward fulfilling their technical needs. At Impinj, I solve help desk requests with a 100% customer satisfaction rate and use my project management skills to lead and contribute to technical and data projects.
In my side projects, I develop and manage web-based applications that are both functional and user-centered. Additionally, as a Managing Editor for UW's iSchool's iJournal, I apply my leadership skills to manage an editing team, ensuring high-quality content that bridges technology with the humanities.
Methodology
I take an Agile, user-centered approach to development and problem-solving. I aim to solve problems rather than search for solutions. I am detail-oriented and organized, and I always strive to complete tasks as efficiently and attentively as possible.
My Design Process
Understand the Problem – Determine user needs, research existing solutions, and gather project requirements
Design and Prototype – Create wireframes and mockups using Figma and Adobe Photoshop
Develop – Implement technical solutions
Test and Improve – Refine based on feedback and multiple phases of user testing
Deploy and Maintain – Ensure security and usability while taking continuous feedback into account
This streamlined process helps me create efficient, user-friendly, and impactful technology solutions.
