Gathered contact info of truck driving recruits and then used a message service to contact each one writing all my scripts in Python. First, I wrote a script that used selenium, a website testing framework to login and extract data from a website wherein I could gather a series of PDFs of resumes. Then, another script would go through each PDF, and selecting out viable candidates viable and then add info of each into an excel sheet. Then, having collected info on over a thousand candidates, I ran another script using Twilio that emailed and texted each candidate.

An App For That:

This is my Android app that is a simple word matching game that provides word matching quizzes in 16 different languages. Two versions of this app exist.

The apps can be downloaded here.

Responsibilities:

• • Create and design front end using Corona’s Composer API.

  • Used python to download sounds of words in multiple languages using Google’s unofficial text-to-speech API

  • Created a basic database for word association between words in multiple languages.
