I designed and implemented the API integration layer for a multi-module enterprise insurance policy management platform built on ASP.NET and C# with SQL Server. The work involved building reusable service layers for consuming and exposing RESTful APIs across internal microservices and 3rd-party data providers, including policy data retrieval, classification lookups, payor bank verification, and agent management endpoints.

I implemented error handling with retry logic, response mapping, and data transformation patterns. Beyond the API layer, I built role-based field security to control sensitive data visibility by user role, input sanitization utilities to prevent SQL injection across all user-facing fields, dynamic UI components driven by database configuration, and batch staging patterns for high-volume policy comment operations.

I designed and built an end-to-end automation tool that replaced a manual process for generating certificates of liability insurance for an enterprise insurance company. The platform reads dealer data from Excel and CSV files, matches each record against agent lookup tables using key fields, selects the correct state-specific PDF template from more than 50 variations, populates form fields with viewer-independent appearance streams for consistent rendering, generates sequential policy numbers, and outputs organized, read-only PDFs into a structured folder hierarchy. It was designed with Python, using PowerShell orchestration, for the PDF manipulation layer. The tool reduced certificate generation time from hours to minutes and eliminated manual data entry errors across multiple state jurisdictions.

I led a comprehensive mobile accessibility remediation for a progressive web app serving a federal government agency, built in Next.js and TypeScript. The project began with a failed Section 508 audit, and I was responsible for bringing the entire application into compliance with WCAG 2.1 Level AA.

I implemented VoiceOver and screen reader compatibility across all interactive components, corrected ARIA attributes and semantic HTML structure throughout the app, built skip-to-content navigation links, and developed custom route announcer patterns to handle screen reader announcements during Next.js single-page navigation transitions. I also built service workers based on Serwist for offline capabilities. I achieved more than 80% unit test coverage across multiple component libraries using Jest and the React Testing Library with Jotai state management.

The application passed its subsequent accessibility audit with all findings resolved.
