Interval Timer

Vertical Solitaire
I had been playing with JS Canvas and wanted to practice more. I didn't like my current solitaire app, So I decided to make one.
Overwatch GraphQL API
Built a graphql api to list the overwatch heroes and maps that are currently released in the game
Americans for Responsible Insurance
ARI was created from 0 to a solid beta in just 24 days. The app needed to be in a preview phase for investors as soon as possible. Using Ionic 2 and AngularJS, I prototyped the app, back end server including an automated email system, and database storage within those 24 days. Unfortunately the startup fell through from financial burdens.
Code Chat
During my Fall semester in 2017, I worked with a 9-man team to design and build any project we desired. We decided to build a chatting application that could run and compile code immediately. I was the lead programmer for all JavaScript modules within front-end and back-end. Our whole system utilizes websockets between the webapp, the chat server, and the compiling server, making it as network performant as possible.
Overwatch Wallpapers
In 2016 to cement my knowledge of Angular, and fuel my excitement for the coming release of Overwatch, I decided to build the Overwatch Wallpapers website over a weekend. The website allows you to search by heroes, maps, and artists and also hit one button to download a zip of all images on the site. You could also click the image of a hero and it would show all saved wallpaper images of that hero.
