Chapter II: Projects
A collection of magical quests and challenges overcome...
OpenFarm
✦ Co-founded and led UI/UX & desktop architecture for a scalable 3D print-farm platform.
Cloud Drawing App
✦ Implemented secure user authentication with Firebase, enabling email/password login, user sign-ups, and persistent session management.
✦ Developed functionality for storing and retrieving user-specific drawings locally, with options to upload for public sharing or save shared drawings for personal use.
✦ Integrated Firebase Realtime Database to enable seamless collaboration, allowing users to browse, view, and interact with drawings uploaded by others.
✦ Designed an intuitive interface with Jetpack Compose, optimizing usability for switching between personal and shared content tabs.

Fractal Education App
✦ Collaborated in a team of four to develop an interactive tutorial application, teaching graph transformations and fractal generation through an engaging tutorial and sandbox mode.
✦ Developed backend functionality for the tutorial mode and sandbox, enabling users to explore and manipulate parameters like x, y, and z to experiment with Barnsley Fern and fractal visualizations.

Chapter IV: About the Author
Hello! I am Tyler.
I'm a Computer Science major based in my hometown Salt Lake City, Utah and set to finish my CS credits Fall 2025.
I will finish my minor in Business to graduate Spring 2026.
I'm a passionate and curious computer science student with a strong interest in UI/UX design and full-stack development. I enjoy crafting intuitive, accessible interfaces that prioritize user readability and experience—ensuring that applications are easy to navigate for everyone. Full-stack development excites me because it blends creative problem-solving with technical depth; I love designing sleek frontends while building robust, scalable backends. I find fulfillment in creating software that not only works well but feels great to use.
In my free time, I enjoy reading literature, especially fantasy novels, my current all time favorite is A Song of Ice and Fire (also known as Game of Thrones) by George R. R. Martin. I also enjoy spending my time outdoors whether that be camping, skiing, or mountain biking.
