About Me

I am a graduate of the University of California, Irvine. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Information and Computer Science. I'm in the process of updating one of my websites, www.gofollowus.com . Click the link to take a sneak peek at the new site! Go Follow Us is an online platform for selling items and social networking. I also just published my first Android application called goCash. I love learning new skills which I can use in real life, and every year I enroll in about 2 to 4 computer science courses covering topics on Database Administration, Web Development, and App Development! I recently completed the Los Angeles High Tech coding bootcamp, to up date my web development toolbelt. The coding bootcamp covered the MEAN stack(MongoDB, Express.js, Angular, and Node.js), including HTML5, CSS3, JQuery, and Git. In addition to my love of learning, I also love teaching. I just published my first tutorial videos, and plan to add more videos relating to computer science algorithms and data structures. My background as both a high school and middle school teacher, should make my videos more accessible to all learners, even beginners. Check out my first videos below:





Projects


goCash Android App
Technologies Used: Java, XML, JSON, Android Studio

My first published android application. I am constantly updating my skills, and recently took a course at West Los Angeles College entitled Advanced Mobile Development in which I learned to build android applications. Four months after completing the course, I developed the goCash app. It is a mobile cash register, which allows users to create a custom options list of items they are selling. They can then use the app as a cash register to process point of sale transactions. The app calculates change, taxes, and discounts. In addition it allows options list to be shared and saves receipts online. The front-end is developed using XML, and the backend is Java. Data is stored using a MySql database. Below is a link to the app:

Bingo Game
Technologies Used: Java Server Pages(JSP), JavaBeans, HTML, Javascript, CSS, Bootstrap
I decided to add a Bingo game to the Fundraising website I am maintaining. Initially I wanted to build a phone app, but decided to use JSP so that it would run on multiple platforms, be scalable, and fast. Below is a testing version of the game, it is not the complete version. It makes use of HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, and Javascript on the client-side, and uses JSP and JavaBeans on the server side.

Fundraising Website
Technologies Used: PHP, HTML, Javascript, MYSQL, CSS

I am the sole programmer for a fundraising website. The user interface of the site has changed a lot since the beginning phases. The website is currently undergoing major revisions and updates. The pictures below are the very first design. Here is a sneak peek of the newest design scheduled to go live in October 2017: Go Follow Us 2.0. The new site utilizes responsive web design, and a dynamic user interface using technologies such as JQuery!
