About Me

Hello! I am a front-end web developer based out of Burlington, Ontario, and everyday I am trying to help make the internet a nicer place to visit.

Because I believe beauty and clarity are deeply intertwined, I strive to simultaneously make both my webpages and my code intuitive, accessible, flexible, and robust.

When troubleshooting bugs has depleted my brain, I can be found strumming a cranked-up electric guitar or taking nice long walks.

Portfolio

Unit Converter

An app that allows the user to convert measurements of length and time. The convert-units library was used for the conversion functionality.

Feels

This app to allow users to type in the top-three emotions they are feeling at that moment, and then create a pie chart to represent how much of each they are feeling. All pie charts are saved inside a Firebase database in case you ever want to have perspective on how feelings come and go.

The Film Factory

Are you curious about watching foreign-language films? With the Film Factory, you’re able to search for an English film you enjoy, and then get recommendations for similar foreign-language films. This app uses the Movie DB API, and saves all movies you intend to watch in Firebase. I designed and developed this with the talented Eyel Mordido, Melissa Ahlstrom, and Robert Duhig.
