Vote Knocker (Somerset, NJ) 2018

Full Stack Developer

A web application that allows local politicians to identify their potential voters for campaigning and canvassing.

Developed using GoogleMaps API, MYSQL, jQuery, and JavaScript

Worked with a team of five, and was responsible for handling the backend development by creating an MYSQL database that would store all of the voter records in New Jersey. Using Google Maps API I was able to then place a marker on each voter address and color coordinate them according to whichever party the voter belonged too.

Puppy Playdate (Somerset, NJ) 2018

Full Stack Developer

Inspired by the popular dating app Tinder, Puppy Playdate, allowing users to find local matches to schedule play dates for their dogs.

Developed using a MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js Node.js)

I was in charge of utilizing a couple different npm packages alongside Google Maps API to calculate the distance of each user in the database and only display the profiles within the desired radius. Every time a user created a profile, once they entered their location into the field it would save the longitude and latitude into our database (users are able to change their location anytime). Then once they pick a radius they want to search I made a function that calculated the distance between every coordinate in the database. If the distance was greater than the radius, the profile would be automatically stored in the “not a match” array thus displaying only local profiles.
