• Incentivized Training Product
  • Problem: Multiple disconnected applications created inefficient training and incentive management for customers.
  • Solution: Engineered a unified platform combining training and incentives management with instant payouts, implementing a fee-based revenue model.
• Payouts Distribution Pipeline
  • Problem: Monthly reward payouts had a 10-day processing delay.
  • Solution: Designed and implemented an automated payout system with custom UI controls, reducing processing time by 70% (from 10 days to 3 days).
• Component Library Development
  • Problem: Inconsistent design patterns and duplicate code across projects increased development time and maintenance costs.
  • Solution: Architected a centralized component library using Shadcn/UI and TailwindCSS, replacing MUI to improve code reusability and maintain design consistency.

• Materials List Interface
  • Problem: Customers lacked visibility into project materials during early renovation phases.
  • Solution: Developed a React/GraphQL interface enabling real-time materials tracking and editing, improving project transparency and reducing customer inquiries.
• Promotions Management Tool
  • Problem: Sales team relied on engineering for promotion deployment, creating bottlenecks.
  • Solution: Built a self-service CRUD interface using React, TypeScript, and GraphQL, enabling sales team autonomy in promotion management within one day.
• Core Services Platform
  • Problem: Multiple Systems and spreadsheets were used to track a projects progress resulting in miscommunication and errors.
  • Solution: I worked with the core services team to build a set of internal tools to manage the lifecycle of a project/lead from start to finish. Built with react, typescript, prisma, and graphql.

• UI/UX Design System
  • Problem: Lack of standardized design system led to inconsistent user experiences across products.
  • Solution: Led competitive analysis and user research to establish design patterns, resulting in a comprehensive UI/UX system adopted across multiple product lines.
• React Application Architecture
  • Problem: Complex agricultural data needed intuitive presentation for end users.
  • Solution: Architected and developed React components following atomic design principles, resulting in a modular, maintainable codebase with 75% test coverage.

• Digital Transformation Initiative
  • Problem: COVID-19 threatened business continuity for a 70+ year old training company reliant on in-person instruction.
  • Solution: Rapidly developed and deployed an e-learning platform with integrated payment processing, enabling complete business digitization within 3 months and generating $30k/month in revenue.
• Seminar Registration
  • Problem: The firm needed a way for custoemrs to register for their training seminars. They had rigid business rules that needed to be followed which made it difficult to implement a 3rd party solution.
  • Solution: Created a system that allowed users to register their teams and automated $100k/month in billing processes.
