Experience

  • Weather Data Visualization

    I delivered a dynamic animation of wind currents and a static visualization of reflectivity radar data rendered on top of an interactive world map. This allowed the end-user to see mission-critical weather data without leaving the host application.

  • Account Opening and Management System Implementation
    http://www.aspiration.com

    Designed and delivered an SOA system for opening and managing financial accounts. The system was comprised of third-party service integration points, background processing modules, and internal—and public-facing—APIs. The solution was delivered with more than 95% test coverage.

  • Checkout Flow Improvement
    http://www.honest.com

    Improved the checkout flow of an eCommerce application by rebuilding a multi-page Rails-views experience as a single-page application. The resulting performance and UX improvements accounted for a 10% conversion lift.

  • Podcast Advertisement Forecast Implementation
    http://www.megaphone.fm

    Built a solution for forecasting podcast advertisement downloads, which I did by creating traffic models and using them to generate episode download requests. These were, in turn, fed into an ad decision engine. The solution was delivered as a highly-parallelized, dockerized, and well-documented application with more than 95% test coverage.

  • Multistep Order Creation Wizard
    http://www.megaphone.fm

    Built a multi-step wizard for creating an advertisement order in a web UI. The solution was delivered as a composite of React components complete with animations, documentation, and more than 90% test coverage.

  • Updating a Legacy Front End
    http://www.megaphone.fm

    Updated a legacy front end, previously largely made up of jQuery and Rails views with React components. The update involved upgrading React from 15.6 to 16.8 and building numerous components, including, among others, modals, selectors, tables, and filters.

  • Astrology Chart Generator

    I built a web-based astrology chart generator that, given a spacial and temporal input, generates a graphical snapshot depicting the positions of the planetary bodies. The snapshot was delivered in a printable format.

  • CellSim
    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmatbM0gftCvPawO_vajHoLuAbIM_H_36

    Designed and developed an application for modeling mutations of living tissues, inspired by biological cell behavior. The simulation included cell division, death, mutation, movement, angiogenesis, metastasis, inter-cell signaling, and elimination of severely mutated (cancer) cells.

  • Radar Reading Animation

    I architected and produced a unique animation for determining whether a radar reading of an airborne object is a potentially dangerous unknown aircraft or a naturally benign phenomenon such as a flock of birds.

  • Toroidal Technologies Website
    http://toroidal.tech

    A bi-directional toroidal flow animation set on a backdrop of twinkling stars. This project showcases the power of WebGL, Three.js, GLSL shaders, and math. This piece of digital art was built as a progressive web app (PWA) with the added power of server-side rendering (SSR) powered by Next.js.
