Work History

C++ Project

Seattle University

Hospital Triage Priority Queue System (C++)

• Developed a priority queue system using heap data structure to manage patient triage based on urgency levels for an emergency room.
• Implemented core C++ concepts, including dynamic memory, classes, and overloaded operators to handle patient prioritization.
• Created command-line interface allowing for patient management (add, peek, next, list) with priority-based scheduling.
• Managed patients using a heap-based structure to ensure efficient queue operations based on priority and arrival order.
• Integrated file I/O to load external data and simulate real-time command execution.

Java Project

Seattle University

Card Game Simulation (Java)

  • Developed a simulation of a two-player card game using Java with stack and queue data structures.

• Implemented game logic, including card distribution, player actions, and deck reshuffling.
• Created efficient data handling algorithms, including the Fisher-Yates shuffle for randomizing the deck.
• Managed game state transitions and ensured smooth gameplay with custom classes for stacks and queues.
