INFO 380: Information Systems Analysis and Management

Client: UW Pathology

Project Team: Angela Benintendi, David Danley, Troy Fleischauer, Chris Mathews, Jessica Pardee, Ephrem Yemru

This was my first client-facing team project at the University of Washington. My teams' information problem was the need to improve the Frozen Section sample tracking workflow at UW Hospital.

By the end of the quarter, we created a new system to track incoming samples from various in-progress surgeries and biopsies going to the Frozen Section laboratory for analysis.

My role included interviews with UW Pathology stakeholders such as administration, and frozen section workers; observation of frozen room workflow; and creation of a system workflow diagram. I made presentations to the class throughout the project and co-authored a written proposal for UW Pathology.
