Software Developer
Acquiring new skills and solving problems each and every day...
About Me:
I enjoy learning, creating, and solving; My curiosity is rarely satisified and I am constantly seeking ways to improve my skills and broaden my horizons.
Video Game Development and Software Engineering are my two main areas of interest, however Web Design and Android App Development are other fields that I am currently studying and implementing into my projects. I have experience with Unreal Engine 4, Blender, Python, HTML, Java, XML, JavaScript, C++, SQL, and CSS.
I am currently seeking a junior developer position in the video game or software industries. Check out some of my projects and certifications below...

Sorting Hat 3.0 is a Python executable that creates a GUI allowing the user to extract numbers from any input data and receive a sorted array as output as well as choose a type of graph to display the sorted data on (line, scatter, bar, histogram, pie).

COVIDcounter
COVIDcounter is a webpage that displays the number of confirmed cases, deaths, new cases, and mortality rate for almost every country using data from the public Covid19API. Because of the strict rate limiting on the data calls, this page is prone to displaying an error. If enough people download it once it is on the Google Play store, I will subscribe to a paid tier API service to provide a better user experience. I have also converted it into an .apk for Android.
-
Weather App
This weather app utilizes the OpenWeather API to retrieve current weather data for any city and display it in a user-friendly format. I have also successfully converted it into an .apk for Android.
