Wow I got you to visit my website, I must be doing something right
Projects
Game Sentiment*
Laravel - Python - MySQL
Game Sentiment* allows you to explore data on news articles covering todays popular video games. Using the Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK) Sentiment Analyzer, the historical positive and negative engagement with specific video games can be determined. At the moment this includes data sourced from five gaming media outlets, 1,800 journalists, and nearly 700,000 articles across 30 video game titles.
World Report Studio
Laravel - AlpineJS - MySQL
This is a news outlet that I created that reports on the world events that other newsoutlets do not cover. This website was crafted using the laravel framework, and includes a fully developed WYSIWYG editor for journalists, like system, and two factor authentication. This was designed using Tailwind css and AlpineJs to make the website feel authentic and easy to use.
LRA Spatial Research
ArcGIS - R Studio - Excel
This was a main research project that I completed for my graduate level course at the University of Florida under the supervision of Dr.Olivier Walther, who is a tenured professor in the Geography Department. This research paper focuses on tracking the movement of the Lord Resistance Army's (LRA) forces throughout Central Africa and mapping this movement using ArcGIS.
LessonShip
Laravel - VueJS - MySQL
LessonShip is a personal project that I developed for my best friend who is a middle school teacher. Using Claude's API, I developed a platform that with just a few inputs, various educational materials will be designed/created for a specific task (i.e., homework, quizzes, etc)
Hobbies
Water Polo
Water Polo has been a passion of mine for over a decade. This sport has shape who I am in and out of the water. The group of friends I established as a kid has gone as far as to follow me to the end of college. I have traveled all over the United States to play in various tournaments, from Chicago to L.A. for the Junior Olympics. While at the University of Florida, I was honored to serve as my teams President and Vice President alongside my close friends. Even with college behind me, the friends I made in the program will continue to be an important part of my life. For the rest of my life, I will look back fondly on the memories I made particpating and hosting tournaments, as well as the many team bonding events I participated in.
Web Development
Strangely enough, both my hobbies start with "W"! I discovered my passion for web development when I was discussing the career of one of my families close friends. Under his guidance, I have diligently learned the various components that encompass both front and back-end web development. Over the years I have become adept at creating websites with unique and functional designs, including this one! At the moment, all my projects are developed using the Laravel framework. My current passion project is focusing on creating a blog for cruise goers, as that is a favorite mode of vacation for my family. Additionally, I have developed my own news website using Laravel which I upkeep along side my college friends. Check out my current project Here.
