OTHER NOTABLE
PROJECTS
TASK/TIME ENTRY SOFTWARE (C# WPF)
During this project, a group of 3 other students and I used WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) to build a Windows application that can be used by employees and managers at service-providing agencies to track their billable time against specific clients, projects and tasks. TCP PACKET BUILDER (C# CLASS DLL)
This project helped me jump into the depths of networking by writing a C# Class Library that assists in simple TCP Packet compilation. Users can provide high level information to the library, which will return TCP Packet objects with the underlying data properly formatted in binary. NLP (NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING) PROJECT (FLASK / PYTHON) This program uses the Wikipedia API to store data about various software engineering topics in a Mongo Database. It then utilizes a Python package called Gensim to conduct natural language processing on that data. Finally, it provides the user with a searchable interface that identifies how related a searched term is to “software engineering” based on the NLP. TECHNICAL &
