At FirestWatch, I analyzed requirements for an Android app for forest-fire notification and management, then designed its UI/UX and developed the app.

I configured cloud services and APIs for authentication, maps, real-time alerts, and chat. I also developed an image recognition model to classify alerts and reduce false positives, and integrated it with the app.

At Goose & Hopper, I worked on Phigital, an interactive trade marketing system, defining features, designing the architecture and user interface, developing code, and connecting hardware. I also implemented a WordPress landing page design for Bread & Butter and coded email designs for the Nursea nursing platform.

I'm currently a technology teacher at Alexander Neill School, where I teach four courses and develop lesson plans and study materials. My background also includes project deployment, technical documentation, software version control, and an Internet of Things specialization.
