Advisor Survey Application

2025

Developed a web application for Walla Walla University's Academic Advisement Office to replace manual PDF-and-email distribution of annual Advisor Survey results. The system provides a centralized, secure platform with interactive Dash dashboards showing response summaries, per-question averages, and multi-year comparative charts. Users authenticate via university SSO with role-based access for Administrators, Advisors, and Department Heads. Built with Python, Dash, Flask, HTML, and CSS; deployed on Dokku with CI/CD through GitLab; and tested with pytest.

An upgraded version of ClassOpen, a web application used by faculty, students, and the records department to find classes, build schedules, and plan future coursework. The upgrade focused on a modernized, less cluttered user interface with improved mobile support, a class-conflict checker, a class-saving feature, and ADA accessibility work using Dart and Flutter.
