My work
Crisis Corps was created in response to the tragedy in Orlando at Pulse night club. We created the site as a call to arms for those who want to lend a hand during times of need. The site was created to be used in many cities and activated as a hub for news, evacuation information, volunteer opportunities and city announcements.
Tech Used: Boostrap, Node, Express, MySql, Jquery
PLYDT was created for shy parents who do not have friends or family with children the same age, and are looking for ways to socialize thier toddlers. It is a way to meet other parents at the park or other toddler friendly places without the awkwardness of having to meet a stranger. The app includes all of the parks and toddler friendly areas based on your location. You can see who is checked in at a location, the age of their children and the length of time they will be playing. You can even use to chat app to talk to those parents before you arrive! PLYDT is here to revolutionize the idea of the play date.
Tech Used: Front end is Materialize. We used google maps and google places to make the map function. The database structure is in firebase and the chat app was also built in firebase.
RentaDex was created as a client tracker for real estate agents that focus on rentals rather than the sales aspect of their profession. Most client trackers dont service their needs or track the information that they want. RentaDex is catering to a very specific niche market here in Downtown Orlando.
Tech Used: This app was constructed in Laravel and MySql was used to manage the database.
In this trivia game I used HTML, CSS to render the game on the web page, JavaScript for the logic of the game and jQuery to manipulate the html of the game.

This is a guessing game using numbers, similar to the game hangman, but instead of letters the player will guess with numbers. There will be four crystals displayed as buttons on the page. The player will be shown a random number at the start of the game. When the player clicks on a crystal it will add a specific amount of points to the player's total score. The player wins the game if their total score matches the random number and the player loses the game if their total score goes above the random number. The amount of points each crystal adds is not shown to the player, but their total score is displayed and updated after each crystal is clicked. The number of games won and lost will be displayed. If the player successfully matches their total score to the random number they get 1 win, if the player's total score is above the random number the player get 1 loss, either way the game restarts. When the game is restarted, the player will be shown a new random number, all the crystals will now have 4 different hidden values, and the player's total score is reset to 0.
Tech Used: Dynamically updated the HTML with jQuery. Styled various HTML elements with CSS.
This is a compatibility-based "Friend Finder" application. (Basically a dating app) The application takes in results from users' surveys then compares their results against all other users who have completed it. The application displays the name and picture of the user with the best match overall.
Tech Used: I used Express to handle routing and deployed the application on Heroku so others could fill it out.
