@katothompkins
Aspiring software developer building telemetry dashboards and data-driven apps.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a computer science student on the B2E pathway, aiming to transfer to Georgia Tech for a B.S. in Computer Science. I’m hands-on in my learning, translating datasets into working experiences and shipping versions with clear documentation.
As President of the S.C.R.I.B.E. Club, I planned and executed a 160+ attendee campus charity event, managing a $2.7K budget and generating $1K net profit for Relay for Life. I grew attendance 10× (15 → 160+) by leading marketing and outreach, supervised 23+ members, and secured 15 corporate sponsorships while coordinating with partners to deliver a live production.
On the engineering side, I built a Flight Telemetry Monitoring & Anomaly Detection Dashboard that visualizes aircraft telemetry from CSV (altitude, airspeed, fuel) using Chart.js and PapaParse. I implemented rule-based anomaly detection (overspeed, rapid descent, abnormal fuel burn), added a flight replay timeline scrubber, and generated downloadable JSON incident reports—deployed live via GitHub Pages.
