Notable Projects

Nursery Management Tool

🚧 Work in Progress

A 100% Rust tool to manage a Nursery operation across multiple locations for a non-profit. Minimizing long term maintenance and exploring the WASM capabilities of Rust are primary objectives in this project. If you’re interested in more details check out the project page.

Distributed Computation Platform

A microservice-based platform, developed at Olive AI to facilitate the automation of healthcare administration tasks, that allowed arbitrary products to operate with a “batteries included” SDK to decrease time-to-market of new offerings. The primary function of the platform was to provide build-time and runtime abstractions to operate functions as microservices on AWS Lambda. This allowed the consuming developers to focus on writing business logic to transform customer request data into a completed task. These abstractions also established logging and observability tools that were enabled and configured by default, ensuring that all software on the platform could be monitored confidently. The platform also provided infrastructure to deploy a standardized database and a runtime interface to define the data model from code.

Details

During my time at Olive AI, I worked on the Notice of Admission products. Notice of Admission is a process, required by insurance companies, completed by hospitals whenever a patient is admitted to an emergency room. If the process is not completed within 48 hours the insurance companies will reject claims for reimbursement and the hospital won’t get paid for those services.

What did Olive AI do?

Olive AI unfortunately ceased operations in Q4 of 2023. Before that they were building products to automate various administration tasks for healthcare institutions.
