whoami


I'm not not Tyler. An engineer who's gotten slightly too comfortable with the back-end. So I'm gonna try boosting my front-end skills. Design? Bit of a work in progress. Code quality? Getting better every day. Cheesy programming puns? Never ending!

Check out what I'm currently reading here!

TODO: I'd like to make this look like a bookshelf where books expand and open reviews written by me.

projects


In my free time I like to tinker with hardware projects. Sometimes I'll design and build websites to step outside of my comfort zone. Some of my projects have been featured on tech sites and blogs. These are a few of my favorites

facial recognition

Over the summer of my first internship, I integrated facial recognition into a distributed IoT platform. This led to a couple of applications including an interface-free coffee counter and a self-targeting dart gun!

desk plant automated-irrigation

To keep my desk plant from dying I automated its watering using a Raspberry Pi, hobby pump, and a soil moisture sensor. This project was featured on the front page of hackster.io. I plan to redo this project using TinyGo on an Arduino.
