Hi I'm Austin


I turn ideas into code.
Hire me.

I am a student at the University of Georgia majored in Computer Science and Mathematics. I am intrested in a carrer in Programming, particularly full-stack web development.

I am currently looking for internship oppurtunites in web development, as well as other fields in Computer Science. I like to do web-programming but not nearly as much as I like to learn to do new things!

Peer Learning Assistant

University of Georgia - August 2017 - Present - I work wtih a team of undergraduate and graduate TA's to help teach a rigorous Inroduction to Programming for Computer Science majors. The class is based in Java and covers everything from basic data types to Object Oriented Programming. This position has caused me to get better at relaying technical information effectively and quickly in laymens terms as well as working with a team in a professional setting. I am responsible for helping students complete coding assignments and grading assignments as well as fielding questions from students about Java, Programming, and Computer Science in general.

Java Web Development Intern

WoodmenLife - May 2016 - July 2016 - I worked on a small team of developers on an internal website that hosted preformance metrics, information on past and pending buisness, and news from within the company. I participated in daily stand-up scrums and was able to work on every part of our stack. I was responsible for completing 20 hours of estimated development tickets in a sprint that ranged from simple bug-fixes to implementing a completely new feature.

The MyWoodmen website runs on Java/Spring/SQL and I learned to use tools like Gradle, Jenkins, JIRA, JPA, and Hibernate. This position made me want to have a carrer in web development and made me learn to operate in a fast paced profesional setting with a team of developers by utilizing the Agile methodology.

Atomic Pass

This is an on and off project written in Node.js using GitHub's Electron Framework. It is mostly a proof of concept and a learning experiecne using frontend web development to create a desktop application. Right now functionality is limited, but I have the basic functionality including generating a new password, saving that password and allowing the user to have one password to get all of their other passwords.
I hope to extend this functionality and include implementation for storing passwords online with basic CRUD procedures and encryption, but this project takes a back burner to school work for now!

This site serves not only as a landing page for potential employeers but also as an example of some code that I've written along with showcasing my limited experience with frontend design. This site is built on the Materialize Framework to promote rapid proto-typing as well as having a simple elegant design.

UGA Mock Trialclose

AMTA Mock Trial is a competitive debate-like activity which pits Universitie's mock trial teams against each other in ficitonal court room scenarios. I have been a competing member of the UGA Mock Trial team for three years. This is an excellent activity to hone public speaking skills and learn to relate large amounts of sometimes technical information to others. We compete for a panel of judges who don't know what the case is even about in the beginning and our job is to give a persuasive argument for our side of the case using facts from a lengthy case document all while under a time constraint and being subject to the rules of court room procedure.
