These are the pieces of work I'm proud of and can be published for you to check out.
I like working with my hands, learning, and designing, so I build things in my spare time. You can read about one of them here. I also do my best to keep a Google Photos album with all of the recent creations here.
I like working with my friends and reading great fiction. We built a site for that. Check out Turning Point Tales. It's just source code now, but we had a blast building a choose your own adventure site. We sourced most of the works from students at University of Puget Sound. How neat is that?
The Ray Tracer Challenge is an excellent book, and a great way to exercise learning a language. I learned a bunch of go while working through most of the book. My source can be found on GitHub.
I needed a tool for talking about money with my wife. Turns out there wasn't anything simple enough to talk in terms of buckets but sophisticated enough to model interest and contributions. My solution was to build something myself with Elm. I think the result was pretty neat.
4 years in the making, I worked with support vector machines to predict the tardiness of ferries in the Pacific Northwest. This is the capstone to my work in the University of Puget Sound's Honors Program.
This is the presentation I gave after writing my paper. You can download the little guy and then just open the index in your modern web browser.
The Honors Program really wanted a paper, so this is it. Don't make me say it, but I'm fairly proud of how this worked out.
My final project was to build an application with some folks in my local chapter of the ACM. It is very cool, and when I left, the folks in the campus Sustainability Services department loved it. The application is a real time way to log the status of recycling bins. Turns out, this is a hard problem! We used Derby to make it live and fun. Possibly not the best design decision, but the application is destined for small time use (for now) and as a proof-of-concept. This is likely one of my favorite projects to have ever worked on. Check out the code.
