I helped teach a graduate Regression Analysis course (ISYE 6414) that covered ... well, regression: linear, multiple linear, logistic, poisson ... the list goes on. The class is awesome, and I’ll probably help teach it again this summer.

Personal Projects

2022
Ruby on Rails
Swift
iOS
Rails API (hosted on Heroku) working with an iOS (Swift) client. There’s an admin site that’s fullstack Rails (using Hotwire a bit). This all came out of internal consulting software that began as a Rails monolith. Eventually I forked the project and built the API when we launched the mobile app (originally React Native; now just an iOS app in Swift).
