Hello, My Name Is Andrew
As a full-time Software Developer at St. Joseph's Indian School, I specialize in developing web applications using ASP.net MVC, Razorpages, and Web Forms utilizing C#. I tackle complex problems involving millions of records in our database using T-SQL. Since 2012, I have also been providing freelance web development services utilizing PHP, HTML, CSS, and Javascript to clients in South Dakota, as well as undertaking contract work for a marketing firm in Sioux Falls.
In my free time, I enjoy working on personal coding projects, coaching and playing hockey, and spending time with my wife and four kids.
I am passionate about my work as a developer and constantly strive to improve my skills and stay up-to-date with the latest technologies through certifications and continued education. I am thrilled to be doing what I love every day and look forward to new challenges and opportunities in my field.

Portfolio
Adam Jones Plumbing
Looking to build his customer base as well as his reputation as a legitimate business, Adam Jones Plumbing and Drain Cleaning reached out to have a website created and deployed. Working with a limited budget, I utilized bootstrap to build a website that would meet the needs of Adam Jones Plumbing while allowing me to reduce the amount of time I needed to spend building the website. I was able to quickly build the website and help Adam Jones Plumbing purchase their domain, set up server space, and deploy their website.

The Web Development Application
The Bach Web Developer was created for a final project at Southeast Technical College. The application allows the user to create a basic website and export it as a folder that is able to be uploaded and viewed on the internet. This was accomplished by utilizing 3D arrays to store information on the pages, as the user edits their site, and then looping through an html file searching for tags I placed in the file. The program then replaces the tags with the data stored in the 3D array.

The Community Assistance App was a team effort put together for an Agile Development class at Southeast Technical College. This project allows the user to create an account, post requests for assistance, and then view and volunteer for requests. The biggest challenge we faced during this project was handling source control and dividing work loads across our group of 3.

Freelance Web Development
2012, my junior year of high school, I learned how to develop websites utilizing HTML and CSS. Since then I have helped clients develop an online presence creating attractive, responsive websites.
Besides my work in HTML and CSS, I have picked up several clients utilizing Wordpress for their websites.
LEAD South Dakota
In 2020, I took over maintaining and providing updates for the LEAD South Dakota website. This was my first foray into Wordpress and required me to learn on the fly. Some of the challenges involved updating the various plugins used in the initial design of the website as well as figuring out how to control design in an environment where a CSS document isn't as readily available to update.

The Chess Projector
This was a project done to reinforce my understanding of arrays. The Chess Projector is an application that can be used at a chess tournament to place an in-person chess match on a display for viewers. The application allows the user to select and move chess pieces, display turns, and make corrections if needed. The program autosaves so matches can be reloaded in the event of a crash.

View on GithubThe SportsPro App
The SportPro App is an ASP.NET MVC application done in a group of four. This project put focus on working through problems as a team and required us to make use of source control. This project also allowed me to work on group management in a group, where at times, it felt like I was taking the brunt of the work load. This required utilizing my communication skills as well as a development log I maintained to help balance the workload.
This project makes use of Bootstrap for styling and used Entity Framework for the data layer to communicate with the database. I consider myself talented at writing SQL so it was a step out of my comfort zone learning and using LINQ to handle creating, reading, updating, and deleting from the database.

React Development Log
This is a development log built using the React framework, used for websites such as Facebook, Netflix, and Microsoft. This was my first go at using the React framework.
