Projects
Simmetric
A group project built to solve team communication issues. Simmetric allows team members to provide feedback and input through
a variety of communication methods.
I worked with three teammates, two on the front-end and two on the back-end. I teamed up on the backend, establishing the node and database infastructure while my partner worked with the text messaging capabilities.
Thanks to both of our efforts, the data is generic enough for additional communication methods to be added with verification support.

XKCD 936 Generator
My first forray into cryptography. A simple windows desktop application that generates four common word passwords with 44 bits of
entropy from ~10 million words from wikipedia. Created with the Python standard library, pywin32 is used for windows copy-paste
functionality. The dataset is local and the application stores no information - assuring the entropy is retained.
In order to test this one out, a couple of intermediary steps are necessary. Head to the source code to check out the instructions! Once you get it running, you have access to endless super-strong passwords!

Fantasy Fantasy Sports
Fantasy Fantasy Sports was developed with a fellow basketball fan to allow rapid iteration of fantasy sports lineups and gain insight into how various compositions would fare.
My partner focused mostly on the front-end elements, while I focused on obtaining fresh data via generous complimentary access from mySportsFeeds.com API.
With an eye toward optimization, I moved all requests to the third-party API into the react app, and used the back-end only to keep track of user teams via MongoDB hosted via Mlab.

Monolith: Roleplay
A game for the source engine written in LUA by programmers from Europe and South America with graphics done by various North American designers.
I assembled and led the team - delivering the final product in ~8 months to a userbase of roughly one thousand. Featuring extensive in-game systems all linked to a PHP forum hosted in a seperate location - both synced to the same instance of my MySQL running on a dedicated windows server box.
After a couple months of operation, we found ourselves unable to cope with denial of service attacks specific to the engine we built the game on, so we decided to sell our source code and art assetts to a third party. For this reason, the source code is unavailable.
