About
I began programming in 2012, and since then have taught myself how to program in languages such as python, C/C++, Swift, Javascript, PHP, and Java. I've also created projects with tools such AgentSheets, Vensim, and LabView (viewable here). Recently my main projects have been:
- graphical, AI, and biological simulations,
- a CMS based around the idea of an artificial filesystem in which the user can store text content with other types of content embedded,
- and a web app that combines WYSIWYG editors with proportional measurements capable of creating fully responsive websites with an interactive editor.

Fish and seals simulation
For a final project of the Apprenticeship program at Shodor, I worked with two other interns to create a predator and prey simulation of an ecosystem with fish and seals. It's based around the idea that some of the fish are marked and the other fish follow them - creating a simple version of schools of fish.
This simulation can be viewed here.
