This is a new project I thought of that has caught my interest. Originally on a to do list that I was then going to toss to the side, my interest in it has grown since I may be able to do it as a project for my algorithms course. I will be doing further research into the matter. I will post more information on it as I work on it.

Similar Project, but general idea has been changed. I am hoping to use the bit torrent protocol to complete it. Going to spend most my weekend working on this. Also looking into making a Texting app for my classmate since he seems interested in it.

WSIN is my school's radio station, which has been a long going project. It was originally an HTML website, which I moved to a Joomla! CMS. This made the site more dynamic and easier to maintain, and enabled more features to be added. Joomla!'s open source features gave many features to liven up the site to what it is today, but for a radio station I found a major lack of features to emphasize their music and DJs. Because of this it inspired my current work on my opensource project JoomStation! to fill in the gaps. The biggest problem was Joomla's lack of user permission configurations and directed article submission, which prevented me from making easy to use ways for DJs and Staff members to update the website. The website is undergoing an overhaul over the winter break, along with a hopeful implementation of JoomStation! if I can finish it in time. The website is available at:

This was another completely flash site I designed for my customer Janet back in 2006. She designed custom clothes for dogs, all of which was very nice. She had become very popular, traveling to different fairs to exhibit her products.

I designed a cute preloader of spinning paws, which was handy since both the gallery and order form were relatively heavy SWF files. We worked on her website to show her work and product catalog, creating an interactive order/measurement form that would allow customers to initiate an order. This was an Actionscript 2.0 Website that used CGI for the form, and is still up and running to this day at:
