Projects
Projects that I have worked on throughout my education at Temple
UX Design
In my Digital Solutions Studio class, I focused on understanding, evaluating, and designing user experiences. Building a complete user experience, I created a website for a food truck called “Farmadelphia.” Throughout the project, I learned how to navigate WordPress and run usability tests to make improvements for customer satisfaction and understanding. I also created mock social media accounts for the digital marketing aspect of the project. This was my favorite project as an MIS major since it was the first time I could design a website and showcase my UX skills. Here is a link to the website!
Data Visualization Challenge
In the data analytics challenge, we had to team up to create an original data visualization based on a scenario and a big data set from the Temple Analytics Challenge, University-wide data analysis, and visualization competition. We participated in the Alexion challenge answering "Which rare disease had the most trials?" We filtered the data in excel by eliminating all observational trials, as interventional studies were the only ones we were interested in. Then we filtered by the count to figure out the most common disease. We chose a bar graph as the best data visualization to showcase the results.
Web Programming
In Web Programming a group and I worked on a semester-long project on a working prototype of a technology solution that utilizes client-side, server-side, and APIS. We coded a web application that helps address climate change and decrease a user's carbon footprint. We had to create an appealing user interface and functionality. We utilized an
- EC2 instance
- SQL database
- GET, POST, DELETE
- Third Party API

AWS Turnpike Toll Calculator
In my Enterprise IT Architecture course, we had a semester-long project that required us to create a Pennsylvania Turnpike Toll Calculator using Amazon Web Services and Node.js. We built and deployed web-based APIs that connected to a SQL database containing tolls for the PA Turnpike in a semester-long project.
Social Media
In my social media innovation class, my group audited “Philadelphia Runner’s” social media presence, analyzed improvement for different platforms, and suggested specific evidence-based ways to enhance content and audience engagement. My team and I created sample user-based social media content ideas for Philly Runner to implement. Here is a link to the Final Report which we presented to a Philadelphia Runner representative.
