I am a Chicago native who loves the challenge of problem solving, creating new experiences and Spotify.

I started to learn code at the end of 2017 (Coding Dojo). After graduation from the bootcamp, I began to work on a project (AssignME) that would help save a lot of time at my day job as a meeting coordinator.

At home, I spend time with my wife, Sam, dog Scarlet, and two cats Steve and Spud. I am a huge Marvel Cinematic Universe fan! (See MCU Rank in Projects)

Coding Dojo Nov 2017 - Mar 2018

Completed 20-week online full stack development program with over 1000+ hours of hands-on coding experience in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, APIs, Python and MEAN

University of Iowa Aug 2007 - May 2011

• Bachelor of Arts Interdepartmental Studies, Health Science
• Minor in Human Relations

AssignME

I created this application because I searched for it while at my day job as a meeting coordinator and could not find it. This saves a meeting planner time and ensures accuracy because you cannot double book a function. This is a Django application and Machine Learning is in the future for this app, check out the demo.

MCU Rank

A fun ranking application for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Rank and display your reviews of MCU movies! This is a Django application with a SQlite3 database. Deployed using Linode, Apache, and Certbot for site certification. Check It Out!

A Blasphemous Soundboard

A tribute to greatest ESPN personality, Stephen A Smith. But really this is a soundboard where I utilized Python's OOP, some JavaScript and Django's admin features so that its easy to add new sounds as they come it. I have the HTML/CSS only version live, give it a try, sound off!

Various Assignments

Over on my GitHub, I have assignments that I worked on while at the Coding Dojo. There you will find HTML/CSS, Javascript/jQuery, API, MongoDB, Express, Angular, and NodeJS work along with Flask assignments.
