I am a programmer who loves to create new applications
and delve into the data it generates!

Python | Webscraping | R

Property Tax Appeal

I wanted to appeal my property taxes because I thought they were high, but I didn't know where I stood compared to my neighbors. Wouldn't it would be great if you could see the property taxes for all homes in your neighborhood? Webscraping to the rescue!

R | Excel

Run the Numbers

I started running 1 to 2 times a week in January of 2009 and have tracked almost every run using a running app. I was curious to see what the data looked like beyond the high level summary the running app provided.

Python | Raspberry Pi

Halloween Project 2019
Candy Tracker

This was the first in an on-going series of Halloween projects to track which of the 4 candies (carefully selected by my kids) was the most popular by trick-or-treaters Halloween night and provide instant feedback. I started these as a fun way to teach my son to code and build things together. My daughter was the art director and chief design consultant.

Halloween Project 2020
Candy Dispenser

The second iteration of the Halloween project had to improve upon the previous year and this was accomplished by making it dispense the candy too. We also had to up the design for true Halloween scariness.

E-Ink Display, Plant Tracker

This project was an attempt to keep my plants watered by tracking the days since I last watered them. The button on the top left, when pressed, would record the date and time and how many days since last pressed it in a google spreadsheet then reset the timer and display.

Python Application

YouTube Downloader App

I built a GUI application that downloads YouTube videos in the highest quality, removes all the ads, and saves them locally to a specified folder. Sure beats paying YouTube $20/month for this service.

Python | Google Drive

PDF Data Extraction

This program extracts specific data from multiple pdf files, combines the data into a dataframe, and extracts the combined data in a spreadsheet.

Javascript | Google Gmail

Automatic Emails

This program emails a snapshot of a spreadsheet. The content of the spreadsheet can be from a Google form that is used to track information.
