Code HS Tutor, codehs.comExperience
Part-Time Online Tutor through the codehs website, which is built to teach anyone
how to code. (February 2014 - March 2015)
• Helped students learn key programming concepts such as conditional statements,
loops, and object oriented design
• Graded and provided feedback on the various assignment submissions
Huffman Compress (Advanced Data Structures Project/C++)Projects
Created a Huffman compressor/decompressor for text and binary files
• Implemented an Encoder class that utilized a huffman tree to compress the input
file
• Implemented a Decoder class that read in the compressed file and constructed a
huffman tree to decode the file
Converting Primes (Artificial Intelligence Project/Python)
Found a path to convert a N-digit prime to another N-digit prime by flipping one
digit at a time, i.e to convert 103 to 199 the solution is 103 → 109 → 199
• Created a tree with each possible new prime from the original prime (changing
one digit at a time)
• Searched the state space with BFS, DFS, Iterative Deepening, and A* search
algorithms to construct paths from one n-digit prime to another n-digit prime
Web Scraper (Python)
Scrapes data from cancer.gov to find a list of drugs for colon cancer treatments then
goes to chemocare.com to pull side effects for those drugs
• Implements scrapy(python module) to crawl both websites
• Uses lxml and scrapy selector to pull data from websites based on html tags
• Exports list of drugs with their side effects to a json file
