Good Things Come in 3s

Objective C, Parse, Back4App, CocoaPods

Good Things Come in 3s served as my capstone project during my time as a Meta University Software Engineering Intern. The app's primary purpose is to make choosing a restaurant easier. Currently, many people rely on Yelp to find places to eat. However, Yelp often presents pages of restaurants at a time and must include sponsors, often overwhelming users with options that may or may not fit their preferences. Good Things Come in 3s allows all users to continuously generate three restaurants at a time based on various preferences and search for restaurants by keyword. Authenticated users can also save restaurants to their profiles. The app adopts a unique scoring algorithm to sort restaurants by how closely they fit the users' preferences. By leveraging the Yelp API to get restaurant data and Back4App to store user data, I created a more personalized and less overwhelming version of Yelp.

Twitter Clone

Objective C

I created this application as part of the CodePath Bootcamp portion of Meta University. The Twitter clone was one of three real apps we recreated to become comfortable with Objective C and iOS development. My Twitter clone leveraged the Twitter API so users could log in to their account, view their timeline, like/unlike tweets, retweet, and compose tweets. I also utilized the Model View Controller architectural pattern to mimic Twitter’s user flow.

SafeReturn

HTML, CSS, Javascript, NodeJS, Express, SnowflakeDB, MongoDB

This application was created as part of the Slalom EmpowHER 2021 Tech Case Consulting Competition. During the two-week competition, my team and I were responsible for assisting a company’s return to in-person work following the COVID-19 shutdown. I created this web app that allows employees to check their return status based on their employee id and COVID test results stored in SnowflakeDB. Furthermore, if employees are flagged in the database, they are met with a COVID questionnaire in the app, ultimately determining their return status. Following the end of the competition, I reworked the application to use MongoDB.

YelpCamp

HTML, CSS, Javascript, NodeJs, Express, Passport, MongoDB

At the end of the Colt Steele Web Developer Bootcamp, I created YelpCamp as a final project bringing together everything I had learned. This project’s purpose is to be a version of Yelp specifically for campgrounds. The full-stack web application provides users with the ability to login or register to create, edit, delete, and review campgrounds. Users who are not logged in are only allowed to view all campgrounds.

Ascend Hot Fitness Website

Weebly

As part of the Somerset County Summer 2020 Youth Employment program, I created a website for Ascend Hot Fitness located in Hillsborough, NJ. Through working with the owner and getting a friend of mine to take photos of the studio, I was able to provide the owner with a site equipped with business updates, information on the studio’s services, and scheduling/booking functionality. At the end of my internship, I helped the owner buy a domain and taught her how to customize the site for future use.
