  U.S. Army Reserves (UCF Senior Design)

  January 2024 - December 2024

  During my senior design project, I collaborated with the United States Army Reserves on a large-scale application that had been under development for several years with a well-established codebase. Working in an Agile environment using Jira and Confluence, my primary responsibilities included bug fixing to improve overall functionality and implementing several small features to enhance the application. Additionally, I took the initiative to redesign and complete a critical feature that another team had implemented incorrectly, ensuring it met the project requirements. This experience required close collaboration with teammates and stakeholders, as well as effective use of Agile tools to plan, track progress, and deliver high-quality solutions within tight deadlines.
