The Ideas Lab

The Ideas Lab

X
The ideas lab was conceived as a way to allow office members a way to share and utilize ideas, a project that would allow us to effectively communicate without the reliance on email. It pushed these ideas to trello, where a core team would disseminate and create a presentation out of the ideas.
It was built using the Google App Engine and Python, along with HTML5 and CoffeeScript. The python back end was in charge of sorting the JSON files, scraping webcontent based on Facebooks OpenGraph tags and metatags, and pushing files to Trello, whereas the front end would encompass all of the user experiences, including posting. As it was inteded as a hub for the office, it included Google Search and Links to office related software.

An old portfolio site I worked on for myself back in 2011, it uses a variety of styles and technologies to create an interactive, eye pleasing experience. It uses frameworks such as Angular in order to create a dynamic experience that is able. It also uses the scrollorama framework to create a parallax effect.
It also demonstrates some skills using the Canvas element, all coded from scratch.
