Annie is pursuing entry-level software opportunities and is also open to data, AI, IT, and other technology roles where she can apply her technical foundation while continuing to build experience. Her strengths span software development, database systems, machine learning, data analysis, React-based front-end development, and translating needs into usable interfaces. At Lehigh’s STEM Summer Institute, Annie created and manually labeled a dataset of more than 1,000 images and used Python, TensorFlow, and OpenCV to develop a CNN that detected six online-learning engagement states with 91% overall accuracy. During Lehigh’s Mountaintop Summer Experience, she built UI pages and interactive features for a React social-media simulator. At Hello xLAB, Annie developed a responsive settings interface for MRSV\*SPACE, structuring seven reusable components and preparing API calls for future backend handoff. She values teamwork, open information sharing, collaborative environments, mentorship, and structured learning opportunities. ## Services - Data Transformation - Semantic Modeling - Microsoft Power BI - Data Analysis - Data Visualization - Data Modeling - Data Cleaning - Postman API - API Testing - Database Systems - Troubleshooting - Operating Systems - Figma - Algorithms - DevOps - Application Security - SQL Injection - Identity and Access Management \(IAM\) - Machine Learning - User Interface Design - Interdisciplinary Collaboration - Java Database Connectivity \(JDBC\) - Oracle SQL Developer - Database Design - Data Validation - ERD - Front-End Development - Back-End Web Development - Project Management - Scrum ## Highlights - Graduated from Lehigh University in May 2024 with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Business, with a primary focus on computer science. - Created and manually labeled a dataset of more than 1,000 images for online student-engagement detection research at Lehigh University’s STEM Summer Institute Program. - Used Python, TensorFlow, and OpenCV to train, validate, and test a CNN that detected six student-engagement states from video frames with 91% overall accuracy. - Built UI pages for a React social-media simulator during Lehigh University’s Mountaintop Summer Experience Program, including sign-in/login, main, messaging, and profile pages. - Implemented social-media simulator features including a hi/lo switch button, posting, liking, commenting, and a profile-image button. - Used JavaScript, HTML, CSS, ReactJS, Tailwind CSS, and GitHub on Lehigh’s Integrative Approach to Studying Adolescents’ Online & Offline Social Lives Mountaintop project. - Developed the settings UI for MRSV\*SPACE, a control application for live LED immersive-display environments, at Hello xLAB. - Built a responsive MRSV\*SPACE Settings page with an integrations-management list, toggles, expandable items, swipe-to-edit/delete gestures, add/edit modals, and live environment-mapping rules. - Structured seven reusable MRSV\*SPACE UI components with mock data and pre-wrote API calls to support future backend handoff. - Held four office hours per week, participated in Piazza discussions, and assisted students as a teaching assistant for Operating System Design \(CSE 303\) at Lehigh University. - Graded homework for about 30 students each week, held weekly office hours, and assisted students as a grader for Database Systems and Applications \(CSE 241\) at Lehigh University. - Maintained computer-lab availability and presence as a lab monitor at Lehigh University’s P.C.
