I helped lead a cross-functional team, with daily stand-ups in different timezones, working with stakeholders to understand their needs and helping to manage expectations from all sides, onsite workshops, helping plan, prioritize and execute the work

At Yahoo, one of our goals was to make sure 100% of the code were code reviewed before deployed into production.
Using hooks and Chrome extension, the App would distribute badges based on the review, messages, comments, files, etc. It also created a leaderboard where it created a healthy competition between the teams and help drive the team to achieve our goals.

Tempo is an Internal Booking Management Tool that has been developed in-house as a pro-active solution from one of our developers to help organize the bookings of our team. Since I've started in the agency I saw a need to check the bookings from my mobile and I decided to start again, another pro-active solution and build an iPhone App.
So, in my spare time, I paired with one of our designers and we started to build a mobile interface for this tool. The app was built in a hybrid solution using Titanium (JS) and it was used across the agency by developers and designers.

Our solution was Movember Games, four simple motion-tracking games that made the user’s mustache the controller. The games were made possible by Chrome’s integration with HTML5, and we used a JS gaming platform called EaselJS. One new game was released each week, starting with the Lame-Mo, where players strengthened their "mo" by lifting and balancing a barbell on their top lip. As your "mo" grew, so did the challenges. The games engaged users from around the world, keeping them motivated and entertained through the often challenging month of Movember.
