Braves Connect Hub Spreadsheet

The Indian Hill High School Tech Department needed an IT request system for student and teacher use. Using Google AppScript and Google Sheets, I created a solution that included a form to submit requests, a spreadsheet to manage the queue and maintain a history of requests, a database to manage the hardware inventory, and appropriately limited access for the student and teacher volunteers staffing the fulfillment desk. Current inventory is shown on the form and updates upon request fulfillment, enabling users to know prior to submitting a request whether or not it can be fulfilled. When a student borrows hardware and it isn't returned during the day, fulfillment staff can see the location of the student's final class of the day to retrieve the loaned item. The new IT Request System has enabled the Tech Department to quickly and easily track their inventory, enabled students and teachers to rapidly request loaner equipment during the school day, and has given other students real-life work experience staffing the desk during their free period.


GEARS

GEARS, a work-in-progress, is designed using TypeScript and React Native to be an all-in-one self-improvement app that does the jobs of a planning/scheduling app, a fitness app, a self-help resources app, a habit tracker, and more. The application is based off of the fact that our lives as humans can't really be strictly planned out day by day, hour by hour, rather we live our lives in a more fluid fashion, where we plan in our heads to complete certain tasks by certain points, even if that point is as abstract as "sometime later today". This is demonstrated by the app's "switch gears" feature, where during a certain "gear", the user has a list of things they plan to do, instead of planning when exactly to do each and every thing. GEARS will be available on the app store and google play for mobile, and eventually for other platforms as well.


And lastly, this website

I created this website to showcase my portfolio and skills. Hosted on Github Pages, it is comprised of just static HTML and CSS.
