Your Connections, at your fingertips!

Published with Heroku so anyone can go on the web and use! The project also has an authentication system so users can create their own list of contacts. Account management with Email and Password prompts, along with Two-factor authentication. We use a database to save contact lists, and even handle image uploads. Email contacts through our application, or even email entire groups of contacts by the categories you've assigned to them.

Since Connectify utilizes Accessing the Database, Authorization, Authentication, Multi-user Support, and an Email System, I believe it is a neat application to showcase my skills!

How the app works:

• Build your contact list - add, edit, and delete users in your contact list along with their information.
• Search your contact list - search bar implemented to search through your contact list.
• Categorize your contacts - assign categories to your contacts and even filter by those categories.
• Contact your connections - email your contacts, and even email groups of contacts assigned by your categories.

Here is the scenario: A company with 10 million customers would like to earn additional profits by launching a new product upgrade program. The company's marketing team has created 7 different advertising campaigns (each offers customers specific features, promotions, or discounts to try to convince them to upgrade). The company knows how much profit it will make per sale for each advertising campaign, but it does not know how effective each campaign will be (just as in the real world, knowing the right decision is impossible and would require omniscience).

My Goal: To produce an Artificial Intelligence system that can maximize the company's profits for it's product upgrade program.

I accomplish this by: Initializing characteristics of our environment. Creating our simulation. Comparing the profits of my Thomspon Sampling approach to a standard corporate Uniform Sampling approach. Showing my approach's absolute and relative improvement compared to the Uniform Sampling approach. Depicting that my AI agent learns while doing, by learning to choose the best overall advertising campaign for each customer while simultaneously being involved in the process of doing that very action.

Enter the World of Sagas and Search for Palindromes!

Palindromes are a word, phrase, or sequence that can be read the same way backwards as it can forwards. Check if your word, phrase, or sequence is a Palindrome with Sagas! This app was designed to test my problem-solving skills for the interview question Palindrome Checker.

• Code Page - a coding solution, and a step by step walkthrough of the functions used.

When it counts, you FizzBuzz!

This project will display numbers from 1 to 100. You will enter values for a Fizz value and a Buzz value. When a multiple of Fizz or Buzz occur, the corresponding word will be displayed instead of the number. If there is a number that is a multiple of both Fizz and Buzz, we then display the magic word FizzBuzz!

For this challenge, I came up with three solutions for FizzBuzz. The three creative solutions were; a For-Loop Solution, a Switch Statement Solution, and a Ternary Operator Solution! This app was designed to test my problem-solving skills for the interview question FizzBuzz.

My first project using Three.js!

Three.js is a cross-browser JavaScript library and application programming interface used to create and display animated 3D computer graphics in a web browser using WebGL. Utilizing Three.js, I set out to apply my knowledge by creating an animation of a rotating Wireframe Cylinder!

Within the app you will find:

• Home Page - description of Three.js processes used, and links to the Github repo and my personal site.
• Animation Page - animated wireframe cylinder.
• Code Page - my code for the project, and a step by step walkthrough of my thought process.

See the words you type BACKWARDS with my project BACK-WORDS!

This project uses arrays to display a string Backwards by reversing it. This app was designed to test my problem-solving skills for the interview question String Reversal.

Within the app you will find:

• Home Page - custom designed app logo, and links to the Github repo and my personal site.
• App Page - functioning and interactive app.
• Code Page - a coding solution, and a step by step walkthrough of the functions used.

Life should be Bold and Even!

This project uses loops to display numbers from a given start and end point, while also displaying the Even numbers in Bold! This app was designed to test my problem-solving skills for the interview question Even in Bold.

Within the app you will find:

• Home Page - custom designed app logo, and links to the Github repo and my personal site.
