Aug. 2017 - Mar. 2018Provo, Utah AreaThumbs - Get instant, anonymous feedback from other people in meetings and classrooms. ★ Awarded "Most Shippable" (best personal project overall) | Check it out - http://thumbs.jamesdcarlson.com | GitHub repo - https://github.com/james-carlson/thumbs Technologies: React, Redux, Node, Express, CSS, postgresQL and Socket.io (not part of DevMountain curriculum). Thumbs creates a companion environment to a physical space where someone can ask a question and responses can be gathered anonymously. To keep the experience smooth, there's no logging in. Instead, randomly-generated unique URLs keep sessions separate. When I made Thumbs for my personal project, I personalized it for use at DevMountain. If you would like to use it at your organization, get in touch!

Aug. 2017 - Nov. 2017Provo, Utah AreaMaintenance Minder - A cloud-based tracking system for maintenance records for homes, cars, etc. | Check it out - https://maintenanceminder.now.sh/ | GitHub repo - https://github.com/maintmind/record-management-app Technologies: React, Redux, Node, Express, RESTful API, CSS, Git, Jest, Auth0 and Cloudinary API (not part of DevMountain curriculum) Life is too short to mess with paper maintenance records! I pitched the idea for this app, which aims to simplify life by giving you a cloud storage solution for maintenance records for your home, car, etc. I helped with various parts of the project on the frontend and backend. I also learned Cloudinary to allow for uploading of maintenance records. Maintenance Minder has a full CRUD backend. (Note: The site is hosted on Zeit's free tier -- if it doesn't load the first time, it's because Zeit puts pages to sleep that haven't been accessed recently. Just try again.)
Director of Analytics
Texas Tech Physicians - Lubbock Business OfficeDirector of Analytics
Oct. 2016 - Aug. 2017Overhauled a financial reconciliation process that had virtually no existing documentation. Conducted extensive research to understand the conflicting needs of multiple stakeholder groups (including Internal Audit, Accounting, School of Medicine administration, and the MPIP Business Office). Worked side-by-side with everyone involved--from those in the trenches to the executive level--to develop and implement a solution. Developed new workflows and new VBA for Excel applications to automate reconciliation of $70+ million in annual payments recorded in two key systems that did not contain any linking fields (Banner and GE Centricity Business). Greatly increased accuracy of reconciliation (to the satisfaction of Internal Audit) and reduced the time needed for reconciliation two- to three-fold. Created 100+ pages of documentation to assist future employees (developers as well as analysts). Also overhauled several other business office processes (e.g. daily bank deposit) and supported applications used to improve these processes. Reduced time required for daily bank deposit by one half.
