Software Engineer

As a software engineer with the County of Kings, my primary responsibilities involve designing and developing software systems throughout the organization. Some of my notable projects include a welfare benefits system for the Human Services Agency and several process improvements and automation. As a team lead, I collaborate with other departments, including the Human Services Agency, Finance Auditor, and Treasury, to ensure that the software systems we develop meet the needs of all stakeholders. I also manage project timelines, budgets, and resources, utilizing traditional and agile methodologies to ensure we deliver high-quality software products that meet stakeholder expectations. I participate in professional development opportunities to maintain my skills and stay up-to-date with the latest trends in software engineering. Through this ongoing learning, I can continue to deliver innovative solutions that meet the ever-evolving needs of the County of Kings.

As a computer information systems adjunct instructor, I teach various courses in this field, such as full-stack development covering back-end and front-end technologies. My day-to-day tasks involve preparing and delivering engaging lectures, leading class discussions, and grading assignments and exams. I am also committed to providing timely and constructive feedback to my students to help them improve their understanding of the subject matter. I also take a proactive approach to develop and maintaining course materials, including syllabi, lesson plans, and assessments, ensuring they are up-to-date and aligned with the latest industry trends and standards. Through these efforts, I aim to equip my students with the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in their future careers in software development and related fields.

As a skilled maintenance supervisor for F/A-18C aircraft, I successfully oversaw the upkeep of these aircraft, ensuring their operational readiness for deployment. Moreover, I trained and evaluated junior maintenance personnel, providing them with the necessary guidance and support to meet established standards. I also implemented safety and quality control programs, resulting in zero aircraft accidents during my four years of service with VFA-94. The Navy recognized these achievements through several accolades, including the Navy Achievement Medal, Junior Sailor of the Year, and Safety Professional awards, in recognition of my outstanding service.
