Awesomeness in a single paragraph. Superlative sentences, crafted to perfection. Every. damn. time.

About me

I do web development and design, using technologies like Python, Node.js, Bootstrap, Git and other funky stuff.

I'm also an adventurous fresh food fanatic, vegetarian, practising urban farmer, travel nut, occasional scuba diver, proud husband, and owner of two friendly mutts.

My work

Random Quote Machine

Random Quote Machine

A simple app that reveals a new random quote at the click of a button, via a 3rd party API. The app is built upon Bulma.io and flexbox.

Local Weather App

Local Weather

Detect your device's location and display local weather using OpenWeatherMap's (somewhat accurate) API. You can also search for a location thanks to Googles Geocoder API. The app makes use of Bootstrap and JQuery, as was designed mobile-first.

Wikioogle

Wikioogle

Google and Wikipedia had a child: Wikioogle. Using the former's styling and the latter's API, this app displays results via AJAX, with the stylistic help of Bootstrap.

Twitch

Twitch Streamers

Using Twitch.tv's API, this app shows a list of channels with their corresponding streaming status. Technologies used are once again Bulma.io and JQuery.

JavaScript Calculator

Here's my in-browser calculator. It's capable of chaining multiple operations, factoring operator precedence and negative numbers, while preventing dodgy user input.

Pomodoro Timer

Not just any timer. This jQuery-free app makes use of CSS animations to represent time remaining, and automatically toggles between work and rest periods.
