Made an optimized commute scheduler with a small team in a 24-hour time frame. Used both Google and INRIX API’s to develop an extremely accurate commute time using drive, park and walk time data. Then applied these times to a user’s Google calendar for each event on their calendar
This C based program compresses text files using the Huffman compression algorithm. By assigning each char in a text file a binary code, the characters in the file will be compressed into a total number of chars and usually cut the file size in half. These codes are then put at the beginning of the file so that it can be decoded.
In this project I used sockets and multithreading in order to make an online version of pictionary. It works by having a multiple threads for each player and passes the information in terms of the drawn objects. The Swing GUI was used to implement the visuals of the simple draw/text window.
The creation of this website has been my largest HTML/CSS based project. On top of learning the basics of both HTML and CSS this project also taught me how to do more complicated processes in the languages like image-text manipulation and the menu bar.
Eager to Start
I am originally from Santa Fe, New Mexico and am now a Junior at Santa Clara University. I spent my first couple of years in college at the University of Denver before transfering to SCU.
I have learned from and excelled in my courses achieving a 3.92 GPA accross my first two years in college and a 3.8 GPA during my first quarter at SCU. Upon beginning my programming based courses I instantly fell in love the problem solving ability and critical thinking strategies necessary to excel. I have built a few projects in a number of languages, and have worked in a number of different fields, but am now looking to apply this knowledge in a real world corporate enviornment.
