Projects

La Jolla Logic - Training & Managing System Analysis (2022)

github.com/nhnduy/LaJollaLogic-Training-System-Analysis

Analyzed the current tracking & managing system of La Jolla Logic - a cybersecurity solution firm in San Diego, and designed a new effective system with Power Automate.

My groupmates and I started this project when we were taking the Systems Analysis class at SDSU. In this project, I learned to utilize Agile methodology to work collaboratively with my team. We used Data Flow Diagrams to analyze their current system, and designed a new effective training & managing system for La Jolla Logic.

DFin App Beta 1.0 (2022)

github.com/nhnduy/DFin-App-Beta-1.0

Used APIs and Python libraries to develop an application to visualize and obtain database of individual stocks on the stock market, and Macroeconomics indicators.

I developed this application when I was taking the Business Application Programming class at SDSU. In this project, I learned to develop an application from scratch by myself. I’m pleased to have gained the knowledge of using technological resources to produce something of practical value.
