I build cool things with JavaScript. I’m currently working on Avalara’s Skylab design system. Much of my front-end experience is in React, but since mid-2019, I’ve been sticking to web standards, using vanilla JavaScript and diving deep into CSS and the core browser APIs. I spoke about my experience at CascadiaJS 2020. I’ve also worked on numerous Node.js services and have been building my DevOps repertoire using POSIX shell scripting and Terraform (infrastructure-as-code).

Helping those with cancer access clinical trials

Clinical trials have a participant satisfaction rate of more than 90%, yet less than 5% of cancer patients participate. Not enough patients (and doctors) know what trials are available to them. Patients need more options. Researchers need more participants. CRC connects these two groups by making information on clinical trials much easier to find. To do so, we scrape publicly available government filings for clinical trials and make them easily searchable for the average person. Our current application includes both lung and colorectal cancer trials, but we plan to extend to other types in the coming months.

Payment Processing For Giving Groups

The Giving Group specializes in collecting and distributing funds to charitable causes for donation groups or giving circles. It is built on a Node back end and deployed on AWS Lambda through Claudia using a NoSQL (DynamoDB) database. I built the user portal for this app, set up a number of API endpoints for our clients, and designed custom features for one of the largest giving groups in the nation. I also transitioned the legacy application to AngularJS and built our donation submission UI and related services.
