About Me

Full stack web developer, former visual designer, polymath.

Currently seeking to work with awesome people either in an agency setting or on a product development team.

In 2016 I was on winning teams for two hackathons, 1 private invite-only event hosted by Ernst & Young and the Money 20/20 Hackathon in Las Vegas. Over an intense weekend, we developed two react-native apps: a consumer facing mobile app, as well as a merchant point-of-sale app, combining the new Modo Payments API for travel.
I have a background in visual design and computer science, I am also a graduate of General Assembly's Web Development Immersive in early 2015.

Projects

KnowTheChainmore_vert
KnowTheChainclose

KnowTheChain is a custom Wordpress theme at the top most level, however under the /benchmarks/ path this breaks from that architecture, utilizing a MVC pattern instead through open-source work. This project makes heavy use of Highcharts and WP MVC to accomplish these tasks. This is a visual representation of heavy data collection on KnowTheChain’s part, which was funneled though SQL queries out of the excel projects, where they compiled their data.

Based on BackstopJS, this is a visual regression testing dashboard. This based on a NPM module that is usually installed inside each individual project that it’s used on. This was impractical for our needs, so I built a new node application that allowed us to have multiple instances of test units, all controlled from a admin dashboard. Integrated into our CI build process.

GetMeFlightsmore_vert
GA - GetMeFlightsclose

GetMeFlights! put simply, is a flight fare alert app, much like you'd find on Kayak.com. The main focus here was to learn how to schedule background processes and having those processes act on certain conditions. Flight data was pulled from QPX Express' API. The user can then set a budget for what they'd ideally like to pay for any given flight and then the app would run a daily process to check to see whether that day's flights to location X has met the user's set budget. If met, the app would then email the user to notify them that it's time to book their flight.
