Events App

React, Redux Thunk, Firestore, Firebase and Cloud Hosting!

Events web app for your business and colleagues to setup times to meet and talk about your business projects! This app uses Google Maps, React/Redux Thunk, Firebase, Firestore and was deployed on the Cloud with Firebase hosting! To ensure a good experience please register first! There are many features including infinite scroll, chat, maps, adding, joining, and canceling events, plus Google authentication. This started from a tutorial and for me to better learn Google Firebase!

During deployment I learned about code splitting, and npm analyze which showed me all of the dependencies and their percentage in usage. I learned about Firebase Cloud Functions and how to createActivity and cancelActivity which were "events" users were engaging with on the app that Firebase was "listening" for. This app is still in development and key features to add are security, Facebook login, and being able to follow your colleagues. Please let me know what you think!

NASA InSight API

Python, Flask, Bootstrap, and Twilio!

This API gets you the most recent Mars InSight Images faster than searching on NASA's site! Get SMS updates when new images have been received from the API!

During deployment I learned about setting up a Flask environment with templates and static folders directories, along with understanding how Bootstrap can work with forms. Python works easily with other libraries such as WTForms, and Twilio. Setting up your environment variables can be done in a few ways and I chose to use the os module. Flask requires specific syntax in the HTML file such as 'url_for' and code blocks for specific HTML components like Header, Footer, and Script tags. My goal is to get the SMS and email up and running along with an SQLite database to store emails and phone numbers so I can send updates to users when new images are posted to the API. I have another few iterations planned out and am excited to get this out there to those who love learning about our planet Mars! Keep reaching for the planets!

Data Structure and Algorithms!

Udacity Nanodegree DSA & Computer Science Fundamentals

This includes projects from Udacity DSA Nanodegree, and my own DSA practice! Walk with me on this journey as I learn and engage with data structures and algorithms!

• Date: June 2019


• Category: Practice & Study for Work
• Purpose: These projects were created during my enrollment in the Udacity DSA Nanodegree, the intent is to build my DSA knowledge and keep growing from there!

Data Analysis Projects

Jupyter Notebooks, Pandas, Python!

The following are images from the four required projects of the Data Analyst Udacity Nanodegree program!

This includes projects from Udacity DSA Nanodegree! This program introduced me to concepts like measures of spread, and center, univariate, bivariate and multivariate charts, the Central Limit Theorum, confidence intervals and p-values, testing for the null hypothesis and what statistical significance is, while also diving into regression, linear, multi and logistical, using Python's statsmodels to build OLS, and Logit statistical summaries!

Along this journey I've become entirely proficient in Pandas, while still tackling the depths of Numpy including understanding vectorization, and matrices. Building visualizations is the most fascinating and fun and I have to say my favorite is visual tool is seaborn albeit some limitations, while of course matplotlib is next in line, additionally, a new platform like Plotly is also useful and of course at work I have access to Tableau which is very powerful as well especially for delivering dashboards that tell a story about your data to stakeholders, partners, and user of your data! I am quite in love with it all!
