Projects

Current Project: Chickie Maze Game

This project was created using Unreal Engine 4, a few tutorials, and a creative imagination.  

Manor House Museum Web Store

The museum and antique store e-commerce project features fine art and antiques from around the world. Each item in the collection is a unique window into the past. Many items pre-date WWII and were shipped to the United States during the mid 1960s. The collection includes: oil paintings, antique furniture from Germany and Japan, and many rare photographs, depression glass and figurines, antique toys, and rare or original works.

Older Projects

Digital Art

Along with learning a variety of computer skills and programming techniques, learning how to create web friendly graphics is essential to creating visually impressive websites and webpages.  All the images linked to this section were created using Adobe photoshop CS6 and CC software.

Memory Game

The memory game was a personal challenge to build a fully functional game in the time span of one month. Technologies used in the development of this game include: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, and jQuery.  The game was formatted to fit PC, laptop, and tablet screen-sizes. 

Content Management Systems

This was a post graduation project that began as an exploration of different content management systems. Stepping outside of my comfort zone, I decided to set up a PHP based management system. This project progressed to the point where it was visually appealing and rich with features and modules.

I welcomed family and friends to explore the site, set up an account, and play around with the service. A decision was made to end the project due to time constraints. 

If we decide to bring it back in the future, it will offer 3 membership options, including a free membership. This will give everyone access to the site, however, it will grant special privileges to the silver and gold star members.

Data analysis using Tableau Software

One of my favorite projects was data analysis using Tableau. In this project a data set of 60,000+ tech employee surveys was used to determine which of the top tech companies was the highest rated by employees, as well as. which were the lowest. The data set provided by Kaggle surveyed employees from the top 6 companies. The companies include: Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, and Netflix.
