# About Me

When I was a child I was obsessed with trains and vacuum cleaners. I spent many sleepless nights marveling at these incredible machines. Today, I spend my nights pulling my hair out over webkit paint timing graphs. In a way, these nights are not so different.

I'm a Computer Science student and Hackathon winner at Arizona State University and I'm interested in the intersection of technology and art. I pride myself in taking a diverse set of interest and my pixel perfect lovingly handcrafted 💯% good stuff 👍👌 HTML. These days, you can find me at The State Press working on ways to innovate the news during the week and winning hackathons on the weekends.

This website is still an active development project, pls don't judge too harshly.

# Projects & Experience

### 1st Place

Desert Hacks 2017

## Virtual Keyality

A VR typing game.

The idea started as something of a joke, but after prototyping we realized that we stumbled upon a killer feature: when you're wearing the headset, you can't see your keyboard.

Opportunity Hack 2016

## Volunteer Management Portal

A web app for nonprofits.

Opportunity Hack is a charity hackathon where hackers are paired with nonprofits to solve the real world problems they face. The Lost Our Home pet rescue needed a better way to track volunteers and encourage volunteers to keep coming back. Our solution revolved around easy to access scheduling and volunteer-hour leaderboards to encourage first time volunteers to return.
