Web–Based Dormitory Management System
Janurary 2005 — December 2005
Many dormitories were plagued by inefficient and ineffective front desk systems, which often resulted in missing DVDs,
lost or stolen packages, and a number of other problems. FrontDesk provided a tool for dormitories across the MIT campus to help facilitate reception
desk functions. The customizable system allowed individual dorms to quickly search and locate dorm resources, such as equipment, DVDs, and other
resources in real time.

Student Developer’s Community
February 2002 — January 2003
DevHood (www.devhood.com) is an online student community for college students all over the
world to come together to discuss, learn about, and teach each other about the Microsoft .NET Framework. Created by six MIT students on the Microsoft
.NET platform starting in 2001, DevHood has evolved into a community with over 23,000 members from 400 colleges. DevHood incorporates a novel user
experience and rating system that integrates elements of a traditional role-playing game with an online community, where user contribution metrics
become the basis for players to advance in their “clan,” thus providing incentives for users to continue to contribute to the overall
environment. The site also features forums and school-specific areas that can be personalized to the needs of the different communities.
