Web development with PHAC Infobase open_in_new
Since 2022, I've gone through multiple stints with the government of Canada as a student. I now work for the Public Health Agency of Canada's Infobase team nearly full-time.
At Infobase we build data visualizations to convey important health information to Canadians. I'm working to jumpstart the process of modernizing the technologies used and pushing for the team to adopt new standards.

Working on games, tools, and content at Podcrash
I have worked for Podcrash a lot over the years. Delving deep into Bedrock content development to bring new experiences to life.
Over the years I've transitioned from humble beginnings adapting Cops and Robbers maps to modern Minecraft to building scalable web applications to facilitate content creation.

Projects
Wakefield Guitar Festival open_in_new
I built and currently administer the website for the Wakefield Guitar Festival. The Wakefield Guitar Festival is a family run and community oriented festival that brings together talented artists from all across the guitar world.
The website primarily hosts the biographies of the many talented guitar luthiers attending to exhibit. I chose Astro for this project in order to hone my skills with this JavaScript framework and it's novel islands architecture.
Zuperstress open_in_new
A Godot game I built for the LOWREZJAM 2022. It was hurriedly created for the jam in a matter of days.
It may not be pretty, nor well named, but it's the first game project that I actually released. So I'm proud to call it mine.
Heritage Clinical Evaluation Tool
Along with an incredibly competent team, I built the Heritage Clinical Evaluation Tool. A C# MVC, d3.js, and Tailwind webapp designed to simplify the evaluation process between instructors and student nurses.
It allows for a simplified and intuitive evaluation process that lets these students focus on lives instead of paperwork.

Duplicate File Detector
A quick and dirty CLI tool I wrote to get some experience with Rust.
Rupes scans a directory recursively to find files with identical contents. I used this to find over 28 gigs of wasted space on a large web migration project.
Podcrash's Farming Add-on open_in_new
One of the first add-ons released on the Minecraft Marketplace.
Add-ons on the Marketplace are combination of JavaScript and data-driven JSON modding system (yeah, I'm serious).
I contributed a lot towards the scripting and planning of the initial release.
