One of my passions if volunteering my ability to benefit those who would not be able to get engineering services. I developed an application, pro bono, for Shippensburg University Disability Office. This application greatly streamlines their daily processes and allows for them to focus on what matters: getting students the attention they need. Less time filling out paperwork and more time doing what they love = win. Solo project.

Senior research project led under the direction of Dr. Alice Armstrong. The project's goal was to generate new melodies that are similar in style to an input melody. The project used genetic algorithms so that they entire process could be done without music theory domain knowledge encoded into the problem and so the algorithm could be used for any genre of music; it is not bound to a specific genre through a limiting set of rules.

Web application built in 36 hours at MHacks, the largest student hackathon in the world at the time.

Tune-In is designed to help students and teachers stay connected in large or distant classes. Due to perspective scaling, teachers may not be able to make out normal body language cues to see if the student is understanding the material at hand. Additionally, in large classrooms, shyness of students may inhibit their motivation to ask questions. Tune-In adds anonymity for students and provides real-time feedback ratings for teachers to gauge the class's understanding, in hopes of improving… Show more
