-                        Project included full SDLC, including requirements gathering, design, agile methodology, scrum, and deep research into domain-specific knowledge related to the scheduling workflow of VIA. The solution included a WAMP stack, the CakePHP MVC framework, normalized relational database schema, and constraint rules implemented using the Java-based AI constraint solver OptaPlanner. Effectively reduced time spent on daily scheduling from an hour to ten minutes. Culminated in a thesis written on the project, design decisions, and potential improvements.

                         \item Interviewed and on-boarded several new developers as part of initiative to more than double current team size. Included domain knowledge training, pair programming, and business analysis.
-                        \item Ported a Ruby tool for managing database entries to a new extensible dotnet tool and added many new features including code generation which accelerated our ability to offer new Office 365 products.
-                        \item Lead on design for various projects culminating in new authorization models, scalable services, tools for internally managing products, and flexible data models for presenting product details to users.
-                        \item Proof of concepts for running remote PowerShell at scale with Azure Functions to run scripts against customer environments for security reporting and metric gathering.
+                        \item Ported a Ruby tool for managing data from several heterogeneous data sources to a new extensible dotnet tool and added new features including code generation. This accelerated the ability to offer hundreds of Office 365 products and add ten to twenty new products per month as well as allowing more developers with C\# experience to further enhance the tool.
+                        \item Designed a distributed authorization model that encompasses Office 365 built-in roles, Rackspace customer authorization, and custom business rules. This model is secure, scalable, and highly flexible allowing client-side to have incredibly fine-grained knowledge of the capabilities of the logged in user as well as server-side being able to quickly validate the user's claims.
+                        \item Implemented a data-driven object model for presenting product information to customers that enables filtering on combinations of dimensions to create adjustable hierarchical categorizations of products without additional code or deployments.
+                        \item Designed multiple proof of concepts of PowerShell on Azure Functions to run scripts against thousands of customer environments per day for security reporting and metric gathering.
