SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS
● Intermediate Software engineer with six years of engineering education management experience

● Deputy Task Lead for developing mixed reality platform for Army PEO Soldier IVAS: XRTAK

● Unity SME for Army Research Lab Modelling and Simulation effort. Increased simulation speed by 32x

● Strong work ethic, self starter, and innovator, evidenced by teaching myself software development

● Communication skills from two years of managing and providing feedback for 65 part-time interns

IMPACT AT MITRE, Intermediate Software Engineer, N151 March ‘21 - Present

Deputy Task Lead, IVAS: Extended Reality Tactical Assault Kit (XRTAK) March ‘22 –
Present
● Successfully lead on-site demo with sponsor, trusted by PL and TL to serve as the face of the project in
a demo to determine the direction of the project and future funding
● Lead development on a variety of AR features in Unity to be discussed upon request

● Served as team point person for UI development in the C++ SDK phase of the project, supporting
teammates in their UI development, and answering related sponsor technical questions directly
● Managed JIRA board, defined and delegated tasking to team members, including organizing
collaborative bi-weekly hackathons with specific 1-day deliverables for the sponsor
● Searched for, interviewed, hired, and onboarded 2 communications engineers

MITRE Multiple Agent Environment (MMAE) Oct. ‘22 – June ‘23

● Integrated the sponsor robot and sensor digital models with existing multi-agent simulation

● Increased simulation speed by 32x, greatly reducing the resources required to train and test algorithms,
previously the biggest downside of the system, now a strength
● Served as point person in sponsor meetings regarding questions and tasking for the simulation, often
ideating and troubleshooting with sponsor SMEs
● Lead connection of the Python (ML) component with Unity (simulation) component. Utilized Python
and ML skills outside of my expertise in addition to system engineering skills to ensure interoperability

Task Lead, MITRE At Work (M@W) Augmented Reality (AR) Navigation June ‘22 – Oct. ‘22
● Outlined system requirements and constraints alongside the M@W PL, translated into individual
tasking, delegated to team of interns
● Lead brainstorms for and designed engaging, useful, and innovative features for the navigation system

● Provided technical expertise both as an AR expert as well as a Unity developer

● Fostered a positive experience for interns in which they can learn, think for themselves, and have fun
while providing impact for MITRE employees

Modeling and Simulation Research (Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office) Oct. ‘21 – June ‘22
● Dictated the initial direction for the team’s M&S research effort to support test and evaluation of AI
algorithms for the JAIC
● Lead system architecture design and documentation that served as a technical roadmap for the JAIC to
synthetize data that can mimic contested environments where collecting real world data is impossible
● Designed and implemented experimentation to compare synthesized data sets, instructed and oversaw
team member utilization as my experiment became the basis for our impact metrics
● Defined the ontology of terms MITRE and the JAIC used to discuss the system
