"Simply put, Jason is wise and capable beyond his years. It was an absolute joy to have him on our team. For over two years he simultaneously, and very effectively, managed a host of special web projects for my office while at the same time owning the steady flow of web maintenance and service requests received from internal clients across the organization.

Beyond just being very technically proficient, he is also the consummate professional: he communicates clearly and in a timely manner, meets deadlines, manages projects efficiently, and his attention to detail is outstanding. He takes direction well — if I taught him something, it only took once and he internalized it and I didn't have to worry about it again. I can't stress enough how much peace of mind having Jason on our team gave me, knowing that he was tracking the numerous projects and tasks he handled for us.

Perhaps the greatest testament to how much I believe in Jason came as we approached the time in which his employment was going to sunset with us. I trusted him implicitly to not only train the new interns we hired, but to also completely independently write and record all our training documentation for future student employees. He's just a really excellent person!"

Noteworthy Projects

In CSE 498, The Capstone Experience, I took lead as the Full Stack Web Developer and Project Manger on the Kohl’s Athenaeum Platform with a team of 5 MSU senior computer science students.

We designed and implemented Kohl’s Athenaeum, a large-scale cloud native web-based application, containerized with Docker to enable easy deployment to Google Cloud. It was developed in an agile environment to create pixel-perfect designs using a modern front-end JavaScript framework, ReactJS, and a micro web framework written in Python to create the back-end API service, Flask, for the application.

As part of CSE 435: Software Engineering at Michigan State University (MSU) and in conjunction with General Motors (GM), Group 1 developed a Lane Management System (LMS) that included the following features: Lane Keeping Systems (LKS), Lane Departure Warning Systems (LDWS) and Lane Centering Systems (LCS) for a GM vehicle. I took the roles of Security Manager, Domain Expert, and Customer Liaison with team of 4 other MSU senior computer science students.

One of my proudest achievement was presenting to the school board of the West Bloomfield Board of Education advocating for cleaner energy in the district. After over two years of hard work together with the EARTH Club, we were able to secure a 20kW Solar Array for the West Bloomfield High School with $0 up-front investment requests!  With generous donations, endless fundraising, and grant scholarships we were able to raise $55k of funding and give the West Bloomfield School Board a break-even point is instant with the guarantee of reduced costs and carbon emissions from day one.

Since it was installed in September 2019, the solar array has generated over 40 MWh of energy and saved over 60,000 pounds of CO2 emissions! Check out the 20kW array live data feed for the most up to date numbers.
