TECHNICAL PROJECTS
Mazer - Github
My partner and I created a game that randomly generates mazes using Depth First Search and Recursive Backtracking Algorithm. Players can navigate their token and collect coins to increase score and give themselves additional time. This was written in vanilla JS and a Postgres backend.
Helped implement the algorithm to generate the maze.
Added coin generation to continuously repopulate after current tokens on the board were collected. Lingo Chat - Github - Demo
My partner and I created a chat room app that auto translates text to the language of your choosing for whomever you are choosing to speak with in the room. This app was created using ReactJS and a Firebase backend.
Set up the Firebase backend and added the CRUD functionality to chat.
Enabled login and authentication through Gmail for application.
Utilized multiple API calls to detect language, provide translation, and receive text-to-speech option NYC Itinerary App - Github
For my final project, I created an itinerary app so people can plan and manage time on their tour of New York City. The app was created using ReactJS and a Firebase backend, utilizing the Moment.js library and Google Maps API, Google Places API, Google Destination API, Google Directions API and Wikipedia API.
- Used Google APIs in conjunction to plot locations, find nearby restaurants, and calculate distance / travel time.
- Duration and travel time was managed through Moment.js library.
- Utilized Wikipedia API returned descriptions of selected locations. EDUCATION
