A Little About Me

I am a front-end web developer with a background in maintenance. I started tinkering with programming in my spare time, and discovered that it fed my appetite for creativity. When my appreciation for coding grew, I enrolled in a full-stack web development bootcamp. I am passionate in creating functional yet aesthetic websites.

Project Overview

Paul's Planner is an application to help facilitate collaboration between students and teachers. It was a group project where we wrote our own stories and used Agile methodologies to complete.

Project Details

This is a full-stack Rails application. The front-end uses HTML, CSS, Javascipt, SASS, and Bootstrap. For user sign-up and authentication we used Omniauth and Devise. For permissions we used CanCanCan and Rolify. We integrated Google Maps for meetings. Rspec and Capybara were used for testing.


Project Overview

The Pokemon Index is a personal project I started to learn how to make data scrapers and flexible search bars. To search you can input a Pokemon's name(or even a small part of it) or it's element.

Project Details

The Pokemon Index is a full-stack Rails application. I used the Nokogiri and Mechanize gems to crawl through different pages and pull its data. For the front-end I used HTML, CSS, Javascript, and Bootstrap. To search through the data I used the 'fuzzy search' method from the Textacular gem along with some of my own code.



Project Overview

Throtl is a search engine for car enthusiasts. I have worked on both the front and back end of this application.

Project Details

Due to a Non-Disclosure Agreement, I cannot go into Throtl's details.
