Catherine contributed to the bcgov/nr-spar and bcgov/nr-forests-access-management repositories by building authentication upgrades, role-based access controls, and data management features that improved security and user experience. She implemented AWS Amplify v6 authentication, refactored session handling in TypeScript and Vue.js, and introduced new roles to enhance RBAC. On the frontend, Catherine delivered React-based UI enhancements, including activity search tables with pagination and design-system-aligned styling. She also developed backend APIs in Java and Spring Boot for advanced search and data integration, while addressing security vulnerabilities and dependency management. Her work demonstrated depth in both infrastructure and application-level engineering solutions.

2025-09 monthly summary for bcgov/nr-spar. Delivered frontend improvements to enhance data discovery and seedlot workflows, fixed a critical navigation bug, and upgraded dependencies to strengthen security and stability. Key outcomes include a new activity search table with pagination and filters, a refactored API/services/types to support the new table and queries, a precise seedlot detail screen navigation based on user role/status, and an Axios upgrade addressing security and performance. These changes reduce user friction, improve data visibility for inspectors and managers, and prepare the codebase for upcoming features.

July 2025 (bcgov/nr-spar) focused on UI stabilization, seedlot capability expansion, and design-system alignment. Key features delivered include adding support for the new species code 'BL' in seedlot registration, with updates to constants and the genetic worth dictionary to recognize and process seedlots using this species. Major bugs fixed include the Purity Content View styling issue (ensuring correct background and a distinct border for table and read-only inputs to improve visual consistency) and a navigation fix for the Seedlot Details view to correctly route the edit form from the Submitted state. Overall impact: improved user experience, reduced navigation errors, and enhanced readiness to process new seedlot data, with visuals aligned to the design system reducing support overhead. Technologies/skills demonstrated: frontend TypeScript/React changes, constants/types updates, UI design-system integration, and commit-based change tracking.
