Welcome to the latest format of my portfolio. Contained within this site are links to all of my
major projects. They are divided by what I did in school and what I have been working on since
graduation. This site was made to incorporate as much information as possible while still allowing
someone with less time or particular interests to easily navigate and scan relavant information.
Beyond just displaying my information and projects this site is a development project for me to
incorporate new techniques as I learn them in javascript, PHP, and CSS3. My major focus has been
on learning to build interesting and solid AJAX functionality. I am now looking further into all the
amazing styling and animations techniques available in CSS3. I am learning as much as I can to build
a solid basis for getting a job in web or mobile dev. Hope you enjoy, and be sure to send me a message.
Major Projects
Zombs in C++
This was my 2 quarter long (20 week) Senior Project, done in a group of four. As Project Manager I came up with the initial idea, broke down and delegated tasks, and managed the through deadlines to come out with a project I am proud of. It is a 3D real-time graphics game done in C++ using openGL and SDL.
Android App in Java
After graduation I jumped into learning about mobile dev. Through examples I have made a few simple Android apps, the biggest being a Sudoku game. This game implements features such as multiple activities, touchscreen and key pad controls, saving and continuing from states, services like background music and more.
CMS in PHP
I constructed this Content Management System from scratch to better learn how all the parts worked together. Following tutorials I was able to construct a PHP backend I plan to help customize visitors experience. On this project I focused purely on building in functionality with PHP, not on making it pretty with HTML/CSS.
Union in Java
This was my first group software engineering project in Java. As a team of 5 over the course of 2 quaters (20 weeks) we focused on the software lifecycle, documentation, revisioning, integration, testing, and maintenance of our project. Each member had a role to fulfill, I was the Project Manager, but everyone contributed to coding.
