Lake Data Project – Intern Project (Group of 3):

This project centered around creating an internal webpage based on data collected from Lake Lanier over

the span of 25 years. It was created for students and researchers to be able to see the data in graph and map

format. The webpage was written in Python with the Django web-framework for the backend and

Bootstrap was used for the front end. My role in this project was preparing the data and writing the

database models and views.

GPA and Grade – Solo Project:

This project started life because of a need that I saw other students having in my lower level courses. I

noticed that students who were not in a math or science degree could not calculate their GPA and

individual class grades. This project started as a class project and I finished it once the class requirements

were met. The project was written in Python with the Django web-framework.

UNG Map – Class Project (Group of 3):

This project was created because of a need that new students were having after the merger of Gainesville

College and North GA College to become the University of North GA. During the merger building names

were changed and students who had printed off a schedule only saw building numbers on their schedule.

So we created a webpage that was mobile friendly and had a map focused on each campus, the students

could find themselves on the map and see the building that they needed to get to. My role in this project

started as an equal and creating the initial page and GITHub repository. I also worked on the database

models and initial views. As the project progressed I became the project manager and helped to focus the

others on their strengths for the finished project.

Employment History

8/2013 – Present University of North Georgia – Oakwood, GA

Web Development Internship

The goal of this internship was to create tools for analyzing data through deployed websites that allows users

to choose, view, and download data. To expand on our knowledge of Python, we developed these sites using

the Django web-framework while utilizing our knowledge of the PostgreSQL database. The websites also

allows our user groups to upload additional data directly. The sites were designed in stages and require little

to no maintenance in each version. The first stage was the initial deployment of the websites, and the second

stage was about rewriting code to allow for more types of data. The UI of these sites are designed for ease of

use across multiple platforms and users.
