Project Title: Research Computing Workshop Data
Project Description: Hari contributed to the Workshop Data project. He worked on creating a microservice that takes in a specified time period and returns a list of the number of workshops and the number of registrants for each workshop. The goal was to gain a better understanding of the workshops that should continue to be offered, as well as which departments we should target for advertising our workshops to maximize utilization.

Project Title: Unified UVA-RC APIs: LDAP and Office Hours
Project Description: Hari contributed to the unified UVA-RC APIs initiative. He helped out in replacing the existing LDAP API and Office Hours application and integrating the now modularized software into a class-based Flask API that houses all of the existing backends. In addition, he upgraded the LDAP API to have the ability to query for time-based entries, a key endpoint necessary for the Workshop Data Visualization Project.
