Director of Technical Services and Lead Developer at Tribeswell.

Web is Life

I'm a front-end web developer currently working at Tribeswell in Bloomington, Indiana. I'm also the sole developer for a mobile app that you can find in both the App Store and the Play Store! I love making web applications and right now I'm learning more about Meteor and React. If I'm not in front of a computer, you can find me taking long walks and hikes with my dog Kaya or taking mini-vacations to explore the states with my other half. Otherwise, I'm playing video games, watching Netflix, or lurking on Reddit.

The Fresh Fork2016

WordPress, WooCommerce

The Fresh Fork is a local meal-prep business built on top of Wordpress and WooCommerce. It eschews the traditional form of e-commerce websites and offers a dynamic menu based off of the selected pick-up or delivery date. This one was a doozy!
My Brain On Anatomy2015

mybrainonanatomy.com

Angular 1, Firebase

My Brain On Anatomy is a "choose-your-own-adventure" website built with Angular v1. The original concept of the website was executed with a Word document and I had the pleasure of transitioning it to a website for greater accessibility.
Lesson Zest2016

lessonzest.com

WordPress, Stripe, Custom Post Types, Subscription-Based Content

Lesson Zest is a subscription-based website built on top of WordPress. Featuring free trials, as well as monthly and annual subscriptions, Lesson Zest integrates Stripe for payment handling. The crux of Lesson Zest is that users gain access to a wide array of Lesson Modules that contain 10 Lessons each for users to easily create fun activities for after-school programs.

Group-Based Tinder

Necter allows users to form groups of up to five Facebook friends and swipe through other groups in their area similar to Tinder. Group locations are based off of the last recorded position of the group owner. Groups can have a group image or a composition of their Facebook photos as shown above. Other groups can see this along with the group's name, average age, and distance from them.

Connect With Others

This is the analog to Tinder's "It's a Match!" screen. In this group setting, two members of each group must swipe right on each other to trigger a connection. The last of those four people sees the Connection screen and the rest of members in the two groups are alerted of the connection. From this screen, users can either keep browsing groups or enter a private chat room with the other group.

Chat Amongst Yourselves

Every group receives their own personal chat room modeled after iOS Messages. Every time a group makes a connection, a private chat room between the two groups is made. A side menu exists consisting of the list of group chats the user belongs to along with an alert showing the number of unread messages. If a group owner decides to block another group, they are immediately disconnected with that group and their chat room is deleted.
