Hello there! I'm Tim. I'm a driven introvert that delights in creating things from scratch, whether with code or real materials.
My first encounter with programming was in college, when I had to build scripts for problem solving as part of my education. I found I liked programming during my final year, but I was about to graduate and didn't have the money to continue my education. So I finished my degree and continued to program as a pastime while working as a professional mechanical design engineer for a product engineering business.
During the Covid epidemic, I found myself wishing I could be doing something I was interested in. So, after 8 years of working as a professional mechanical design engineer in the product engineering industry, I realized I wanted to do something more with my interest in technology and working with computers. So, in early 2022, I made a career change and completed Fullstack Academy's 12-week intensive Web Development Bootcamp program, which was sponsored online by my institution.
In my spare time, I enjoy watching tv shows, movies, and video games with a science fiction-based world-building aspect. My interests in these media types have carried over to my career in software development, as I have a particular interest in front-end and back-end engineering.
View ResumeGalactic Pawn is a project I built alongside Aaron Heiy , Taylor Kirkes , and Jacob Warren for a capstone project. We were instructed to create an e-commerce shop web application from scratch. We decided to create an e-commerce application for a fictional pawn shop at the end of the galaxy. This allow us to be creative with the items in the database system. This e-commerce application required a lot of heavy lifting to create a universal cart and overall shopping experience as well as introduce the products and include an admin page.
