Projects

Golf Skins,  Jan 2017 - Feb 2017

I built this web application that is mobile friendly because I go golfing a lot with my friends and we get confused on who owes who at the end of the round. By using Angular 1.x, HTML5, CSS3, and Bootstrap, I created a quick and easy way to keep track of friendly golf wagers with your friends! Enter all the skins, pars, birdies, and more into the fields and it will calculate who owes who in real time. No more staring at the scorecard trying to do all the math in you head

Shop n Stop,  Apr 2016 - Jun 2016

Shop n Go is an e-commerce website I created for buying products using the Stripe API. I have implemented Elasticsearch to help you find your items as well a category section to help narrow down your search. Primarily built with node.js, express.js, HTML5, CSS3 and jQuery connected to monogoDB database.

PickUp,  Nov 2015

My group and I built a web application to connect people by playing sports. From one-on-one to groups activities, PickUp finds events nearby based on your location using the Google Maps API. Primarily built using Ruby on Rails and Javascript with PostgreSQL on the backend. jQuery and AJAX to make the site dynamic and interactive.  

Flapper News, Oct 2015

Flapper News is a single page application my friend and I created to post interesting articles we find around the internet. The main purpose of this project was to learn AngularJs and the basic fundamentals to build powerful front-end applications. We learned more about directives, two-way data binding, controllers and much more.
