Work Experience
Software Engineer
Story Squad• February 2020 - October 2020
I worked with Story Squad as a backend engineer. I wrote the data science integration for their main single-page web app. Another engineer and I wrote a Story Squad clone for quick release with custom email validation, utilizing AWS SES and S3 buckets for images rather than base64. It consisted of running base64 encoded images through a text transcription script, then grading the transcribed text with another script. Ultimately, creating match-ups from the grades. The stack we used was NodeJS, Express, TypeORM, PostgreSQL, Python on the backend. Typescript, and React for the frontend.

Springfield Technical Community College
Computer Science, BS• September 2012 - July 2014
This was a bachelor's transfer program to UMass. I was running an IT business on campus, so that provided me with tuition. When the campus decided to not renew my contract, I lost my tuition assistance. I never was able to return.
