We are now at the end of the road to Capstone, and while this journey has presented several moments of struggle, a tremendous amount of discovery, and great triumph, I can’t help but to think about what’s on the other side of the horizon. For some, grad school is in the plans. For others, a… Continue reading Week 7: End of the Road

Now that we are in the later stages, most of the planned functionality for the project is working and much of the angst from day 1 has been replaced by an anxiousness to finish strong. In delivering a quality product, I feel strongly that great focus should be placed on preventing and minimizing technical issues… Continue reading Week 6: Things get a little fuzzy

Ok. Back to our originally scheduled program. As a new developer, my design decisions often take me into the realm of what the h3ll were you thinking. And while the ideas are generally dope, at least my mom thinks so, the reality usually boils down to me almost always working feverishly to figure out the… Continue reading Week 5: Quick and to the (Geolocation) Point

The first job to do on my list was to create the wireframes for my select pages. I remember doing this exercise on a Chipotle napkin for… Continue reading Week 2: Wired Out Da Frame

This week, I entered a whirlwind comprised of meeting the team for the first time; setting ground rules; and drafting our project blueprint. What a start. Since most of the sweat was over fostering good team dynamics, the key principles around this is where I will focus. Joining a new team where you’ve never met… Continue reading Week 1: Enter the 36 Chambers

Welcome to my blog. Pour yourself a tasty beverage and relax. While we’re not here for a very long time, I hope that we’re at least here for a good time. Ok. Where do we start? At the beginning I guess. Don’t worry, I will try to finish before the elevator stops. I think this… Continue reading Week 0: Can’t Teach Old Dogs New Code?

Because it’s only right.  Now let’s get blogging!
