My journey as a mobile developer began during my undergraduate studies, where I worked on an indoor navigation system using BLE beacons. The project combined sensor data processing and user-centered design to help users navigate indoor spaces without GPS, sparking my interest in building software that bridges real-world interaction with intelligent systems. After graduating, I joined the R&D team at In Time Tec, where I engineered a secure Android SDK for Equifax Inc. The SDK captured device signals like sensor activity and location data to detect bots in production apps used by over 100K devices. In parallel, I contributed to backend development with SQL automation and API optimization for an e-commerce platform, solidifying my skills in full-stack development and scalable Android architecture. Currently, I’m pursuing my master’s in Computer and Information Science at UMass Dartmouth, where I’ve continued to integrate Android development with applied research. As a Graduate Student Assistant, I built ReLeaf - a Kotlin-based Android app supporting patients recovering from substance use disorder. I integrated Jetpack Compose, Room, MVVM, and Firebase to enable journaling, goal-setting, and secure local storage. Analyzing app data helped us understand user behavior and tailor check-ins and journaling prompts for better engagement. I also led a research project on automating ICD code classification using NLP, GPT-4, and hybrid hierarchical models. This work, accepted for publication at IEEE CISOSE 2025, deepened my expertise in machine learning and semantic analysis, skills I continue to apply in building smarter mobile interfaces and backend intelligence. I bring to the table strong experience with Jetpack Compose, Hilt, Firebase, Room, Retrofit, Compose Multiplatform, and Ktor. My work spans sensor-based SDKs, health apps, hybrid research projects, and full-stack systems, anchored in performance, modularity, and meaningful impact, with added depth in applied AI/ML and natural language processing for real-world mobile intelligence. I thrive in collaborative teams and look forward to building apps that are technically sound and truly user-focused. Thank you for your time and consideration. I would love the opportunity to bring my skills and passion for Android development to your team.
