Portfolio

Below you may view links to projects I am working on or have worked on in the past. As you will see my knowledge of computers and technology is not focused on one specific area but rather on a broad range of topics.

Web Development

IOFAST
IOFAST is a store that I started with a few people that sells very inexpensive computer, networking and electronic products. I invite you to check out our amazing prices on everything from HDMI cables to computer and networking tool kits.

Rolling Thunder VA Chapter 3
This site was done for a chapter of an organization that makes the public aware of the ongoing POW/MIA issue. The original website was starting to look dated and was brought up to date with drop down menus, navigation, and a constant theme throughout the entire site.

I also added a PHP gallery script, I have extended a bit, so that members may easily upload photos to the site and not have to worry about creating thumbnails or resizing images so they can be viewed appropriately. Once the photos are uploaded they may order prints of any image in the gallery from shutterfly.

If you would like to view the old layout I have left it intact for comparison. This kind of transformation can generally take place over the course of a weekend in my spare time.

My Blog
This site has gone under many revisions. I went through several layout changes and code revisisions when I realized it was taking up too much of my time. I decided to go with a package called WordPress and just create my own tweaks when I saw fit. WordPress is one of the most popular blogging platforms in the world and has a large community and user base. If you are interested in starting your own blog I would recommend using WordPress.

De Blander Technologies
This is a quick site I put up where people can download free software applications I have created or compiled. Check out the Spyware Attack Pack when you have some free time. You might find it has a few useful tools for your computer.

Software Development

Final Fantasy Zero
One of my first major public projects I wrote in Visual Basic back in my late junior year and early senior year of high school. My shrinking ammount of free time eventually killed the development process but it was a great experience.

Code Edit Pro
I am currently writing this program to assist me in embedded software development. I basically don't touch it unless there is something about it that is bugging me. It is a pretty good editor right now for my needs and its growing popularity on SourceForge shows me that it is able to meet others needs as well.

Open Source
From time to time I post source code snippets and complete projects that I have written here. I will occasionally put code that other people have written that I find interesting their as well.
