About

I'm a passionate, excited software engineer with experience in full stack web development. My focus is on creating solutions for users to better interact with sites and make complicated procedures simple. I have worked on small scale research projects with the Department of Psychology at Tufts all the way to large scale deployed customer facing solutions for managing network security at Cisco Systems.

Outside of software development, I play saxophone, enjoy running and biking and going for adventures with my dog Alfie!

Smart Shopper - Dynamic Interactive Grocery List based around Nutrition

Smart Shopper allows users to create a dynamic grocery cart that shows nutritional information using an API (Nutritionix).

The system created requires no account, rather a user can send the list to their phone (generating a unique URL which retrieves their data with no personally identifying information).
