My Projects

--tap project for details--

meme machine

The refined interface utilizes RUBY/RAILS to manage and route data to the server. The UX/UI was built with modern REACT/HOOKS. Secure user authentication implemented with JWT and BCRYPT. Creating an intuitive flow required complex use of state, props and params. Technologies used: REACT, RUBY, RAILS, JWT, BCRYPT, and AXIOS.

new alternatives

A collaboration of four developers and a UX/UI team. Good communication and managing git branches were priorities. Fullstack with a NODE.JS/EXPRESS back-end and a REACT/HOOKS front-end. I worked directly on the carousels that consume data from various sources. Technologies used: REACT, NODE.JS, EXPRESS and AXIOS.

dynamic trivia

A mobile first trivia game (this panel displays three screens). The app showcases my mastery of CSS animations. It includes an opening curtain reveal, rotating 3D selector cube, dynamic countdown clock and full screen transitions. All game functionality and logic are written in JAVASCRIPT. Technologies used: HTML, Javascript and CSS.

view vault

This app allows users to maintain a private collection of movie and TV shows. The authentication is fully functional but not secure. Relies on AXIOS calls for content from TMDB.org and from AIRTABLE for user information. Users enjoy full CRUD from a feature rich interface. Technologies used: REACT, HTML, JAVASCRIPT, CSS and AXIOS.

todo list

I know, another todo list. I included this because it illustrates how, even when I first started coding, I paid attention to details and included full functionality with a fun UX/UI. This app uses local storage instead of a data base to retain the users task list data. Technologies used: JAVASCRIPT, HTML, and CSS.

portfolio

This front-end project is designed to present a clean professional appearance while allowing the user access to more detailed information through various CTA buttons. The functionality is a mix of JAVASCRIPT and advanced CSS. The chaser button is a sample of my CSS skills. Technologies used: JAVASCRIPT, HTML, CSS.

ski chair by pool

Commissioned by a family who wanted a very basic online presence. The priorities were visual display, contact links and mobile compatibility. Responsiveness implemented with media queries and relative units. Images harvested from FaceBook then formatted and content was custom-written. Technologies used: HTML, CSS, JAVASCRIPT.
