Case Studies & Programs

Programming Setup

"Zero to Full-Stack" Intensive

React Node.js MongoDB Jest
Case Study

Designed a 12-week immersive bootcamp curriculum aimed at non-traditional students. The program utilizes project-based learning, transitioning learners from basic HTML/CSS to deploying complex, test-driven MERN stack applications. Resulted in an 85% placement rate for graduates.

Cloud Network Visualization

Enterprise Cloud Migration Upskilling

AWS Terraform Docker
Case Study

Developed a corporate training suite to upskill 500+ legacy systems engineers into modern cloud architects. The curriculum featured heavily guarded sandbox environments where engineers could safely practice Infrastructure as Code (IaC) without risking production environments.

Code on Screen

Interactive Component Library Hub

React Storybook TypeScript
Case Study

A self-paced learning module created for a front-end engineering team. It interactive documentation that guides developers on how to consume and contribute to the company's internal design system. Reduced onboarding questions regarding UI components by 60%.

Digital Matrix Security

Cybersecurity for Non-Tech Roles

WebSec Compliance Phishing Sims
Case Study

A highly engaging, narrative-driven corporate compliance course. Escaping the "boring presentation" trope, this course uses interactive phishing simulations and gamified risk assessments to teach marketing, HR, and sales teams how to identify social engineering attacks.
