- Full CRUD for creature and lesson management
- User authentication with role-based access
- Dockerized deployment on Fly.io with MySQL
- Responsive MVC architecture with Razor views
This was a team project where I was the "former teacher" on the squad. The idea is that you mess with DNA codon sequences and watch different creatures generate, kind of like Pokémon but actually educational. I brought the learning framework, and the rest of the team covered biology accuracy, creature design, and backend logic. It's not successfully deployed yet, but the idea is genuinely solid and we'd love to revisit it someday.

A collaborator you keep coming back to
Intuitive, collaborative, and helpful — Katy knows how to solve your problem and has consistently provided numerous sources of knowledge and personal growth. Katy wants everyone around her to excel and goes out of her way to help people find their strengths. I would jump at the opportunity to work with her again.
Positivity, wit, and creativity
Few people I've worked with in my professional career have brought as much positivity, wit, and creativity to the job. I've found her to be driven, adaptable, passionate, and able to focus on the details while not losing sight of the mission. Her professionalism and empathy make her a true joy to work with.
