My Expertise

Hi, I'm Shoshanna. I'm certified in UX Design and Research and hold a Bachelor of Science in Software Development. I love building thoughtful software that makes a positive impact on those who use it.

Design

I bring a user centered mindset to my projects. My goal is to create intuitive tools that anyone can enjoy. I keep this in mind while making early sketches until I'm building interactive, responsive layouts.

Code

I do my best to write clean, maintainable code. I enjoy working across the stack to translate ideas into structured logic, reusable components, and dynamic experiences. I'm always learning something new!

Tools

I have experience using tools to streamline development, support collaboration, and debug effectively throughout the entire build and deployment of a project.

Featured Projects

CakeQuest

Spring Boot
Hibernate/JPA
MySQL
Thymeleaf
REST APIs
Web Scraping (Jsoup)
PWA Development
CI/CD (GitHub Actions, Docker, DigitalOcean)
MVC

CakeQuest is a server side rendered PWA made with Spring Boot. This project creates a place for home bakers to centralize all of their favorite recipes by simply pasting in the URL. Recipes are then editable, giving bakers the ability to customize a recipe to their own taste. Cake, frosting, and filling recipes can be put together as custom Cake Orders. Each Cake Order automatically generates a unified shopping list, custom tasks, and a suggested timeline, making big cake projects simple and stress-free.

User Experience Design

Lazztech Hub is a progressive web app designed and developed by Lazztech LLC to facilitate in-person community building. Since June 2025, I have been working full time as an intern for Lazztech LLC. In September 2025 I began contributing to this project as an Associate Software Engineer. Since then, I have shipped multiple features and bug fixes in both the frontend and backend codebases, created and implemented a UX redesign plan to enhance usability across the app, and optimized performance by implementing Service Worker-based caching.
