I am currently building this app for the bartender and manager I used to be.  It helps me to hone my Vue and TS knowledge, as well as learn how to work with Google Firebase. It also gives me the opportunity to use the wealth of beverage knowledge accumulated over a decade of working in the cocktail industry.
Back when I was in the drinks trade we typically used a spreadsheet listing the house classic drinks recipes, and another for each season of new cocktails. What if we could customize the whole process and also have access to a network of friends' menus, archive and access all former menus and also integrate past seasons? This might be a great tool to identify a picky customer's order, or to save progress on cocktail creations for the spring menu drop, or simply to find your next hit for your home cocktail party

Since November 2021 I have been working at iVisa, an international startup specializing in travel documents. My tasks vary and span our entire stack but my focus leans towards the Front End and I write a lot a Vue and TailwindCSS code every day. 
My first responsibility was to write a whole suite of UI tests with Laravel Dusk and since then I have grown to work with the team on implementing diverse UI features for small and large parts of the application, such as a new mobile navigation screen, visa selection page or user account experience. 
I also had the chance to work on integrating generative AI to summarize our blogs and improve features for our admin side, like an YouTube iframe generator tool for markdown or document scanning processing.

This one was not a coding project per se, but required all my problem solving skills. Ms Boisson asked me to work on fixing up the website for her mother Judi's quilt and linen brand, which looked like it needed a bit of love and some fresh CSS. 
Right away I discovered that this site was running on Magento 1, which had been discontinued in 2018. So without access to the codebase I couldn't simply restyle anything. Instead my work here was to help them find the right way to get the store back online. 
So instead of migrating to Magento 2, I decided to have them make this a Shopify store, much more user friendly, especially if you're a small shop without a tech team handy. Here are the main steps we took for this:

1. Migrate and backup all the data that wasn't lost in the 5 years since Magento died.
2. Create the store and set up all the Shopify admin details. Payment, domain setup, email tracking etc, so many different pieces that were left unchecked for too long and needed to just work again so clients could be contacted and inventory could start moving again.
3. Choose a theme and make sure the data wasn't corrupted and the products were represented correctly and attractively.
4. Start selling, and they have brought since August 2023 over $50K in sales.
In the end the job here was to figure out what was wrong with this store, investigate some issues and make sure we documented the new systems and processes to future proof the store. Today they are back on track selling the products that make the Judi Boisson brand amazing.

After a successful project with Kyle Corea in 2022, he and his father contacted me to build a simple portfolio site where they could easily showcase and update Carey's artwork. The result is this one page site where each piece can be looked closer and more information requested. The mobile first design helps Carey's son Kyle spread the word in NYC and the simplicity allows for the artist's work to shine, albeit through a blue light screen.
