ACCR is a nonprofit that works to provide additional support for defendants in the Atlantic region since the defendants in this area are overworked with too many cases. We created a system to record when the ACCR staff, lawyers, and other legal workers donate time, money, and efforts into the organization's efforts through a timesheet based system which also uses a database to store and collect the data. We plan to make this system as seamless as possible so that it is both efficient and effective, while maintaining all functionality.
The current modules in AMSTR are:
Log work: Currently a collection of typical Rails CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) views to manage logs for work done.
View statistics: Display of work statistics, notably hours of work and monetary value of work done. If you need to display additional data in View Statistics, create another instance of CategoryView.
Download report: A spreadsheet view of logs, almost like a paper timesheet. User can download a spreadsheet file (currently CSV only) containing entirety of data readable by the user.
Search: Search logs by keywords in any field.
This is a database project that was developed during my CSC 315 class where we modeled the energy supply of various energy sources at TCNJ. This was created using Flask and PostgreSQL. The user is given the option to:
- Evaluate TCNJ's energy reliability via a computed energy cost to energy usage ratio.
- Evaluate TCNJ's energy fluctuation based on certain months or heating/cooling seasons.

Designed the architecture and color scheme for 8 distinct, responsive pages to ensure optimal user experience
Collaborated with 2 talented back-end developers to seamlessly display and retrieve database queries for over 400 users.
Developed a student-side interface and game modes for the application
Contributed to open-source software using Git
Created and implemented visual models for application's game modes
Developed and Designed using Java, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
Developed a mobile application designed to help students find books in the school library alongside Dr. Knox
