Picture of me

Hey, I'm Long πŸ‘‹

I'm a full-stack developer with experience building software solutions in cross-functional team environments. I'm passionate about applying my skills to tackle real world challenges.

Currently open to new opportunities, particularly in back-end development. I'm interested in solving the challenges of building reliable, efficient and scalable infrastructure.

When not coding, I love playing soccer, cooking and exploring new cafes in the city.

Projects


Ontario Hydro Plan Comparison

Flask | Python | Pandas | SQLite | JavaScript | Plotly Charting Library

Overview
A full-stack web app that helps Ontario residents compare electricity plans using their real usage data. Users upload their Green Button XML files, and the app processes the data with Pandas and displays cost breakdowns using Plotly.


Project motivation

The motivation for this project came from a conversation with a friend about the energy plans offered by our local electricity provider, and which of the three available plans would save them the most money. Though I found no difference between the plans in my case, my friend happily switched to the more cost-effective plan for them (as it allowed them to charge their car for cheaper at night 🌚⚑).

YouTube Stats Collector

Flask | Python | JavaScript | YouTube API
Overview

A tool for collecting the metrics of every video in a YouTube playlists or channel. Simply paste the URL to the playlist/channel, and the app will return a CSV of metric data gathered from the YouTube API - ready to be used in visualization exercises or machine learning datasets.


Project motivation

While working on a data visualization project, I needed video metrics from a playlist with hundreds of videos in it. Finding no tool to automate this process, and faced with the possibility of having to repeat this process for a different playlist again, I resorted to create this app.

Design to Code Conversions (PSD to HTML/CSS)

HTML | CSS | JavaScript | SCSS
Overview

Some of my old "design to code" mock-ups for classes during my time at Juno College.
