A project that I am extremely proud of that I worked on was a Stock Market
Simulator project. The purpose of this project was to develop an app that would
simulate the stock market based on historical data, and the target users would
mainly be people who want to learn about the stock market as way to gain
experience trading through a  safe enviornment with no risk. I was the team lead
in this project in the group of 4. The tech stack we used for this project was
Python, Flask, Firebase, and JavaScript. I worked both the frontend and backend
features of this application. I was able to learn a lot from this project, such
as being a leader, and working with new technology. In the end, we were able to
deliver a successful and fully functional application.

In 2022 one of the representatives I worked with was planning a one month long
Power and Video evaluation. Before the evaluation was going to begin I was
informed that he would not be able to cover because he was going out on medical
leave to have heart surgery.
At first I was very concerned because there a lot of moving parts to an
evaluation of this nature and magnitude. You have to know the surgeons
preferences and technique, competitors instruments, various surgical procedures,
and what instruments are compatible with other competitive instruments. I was
going to be taking the lead on this with very short notice and not much time to
plan before he was departing for medical leave. We sat down and meet everyday
for a week and went over all the inventory ordered, surgeons, and procedures. I
had every surgery day planned for.
When the eval started I got there an hour before the cases started to setup the
room and make sure all the capital and disposable equipment was ready. I
introduced myself to the surgeons before each case and stood in all the cases
where our equipment was being used. After each case I would address any
questions, comments, or concerns the surgeon had and ask for their support to
move forward with purchasing the equipment.  After the day was completed, I
ensured all the equipment was properly put away, sterilized, and ready for the
next day.  I’d go back to the hotel, make notes on the day, and review my notes
for the next day. I did this Sunday through Thursday night for 4 weeks.
When the 4 week evaluation concluded I gathered all the feedback from surgeons,
addressed any concerns, and reinforced the positive feedback and once again
politely asked for the business.
I was responsible for sending back all of the equipment so I spent a few extra
days gathering equipment and ensuring nothing was left behind.
A few months later we found out that the surgeons really liked our equipment and
we were awarded the power contract. That contract was the largest for that year
and I was personally thanked in our monthly newsfeed by our CEO for my efforts.
