BrandonHowe/README.md

Hi, I'm Brandon Howe

I'm a motivated, self-driven developer with a focus on learning and building new things.

I have over 3 years of professional experience at Mechanical Solutions, Inc. and over a decade of hobby experience. I am an undergrad at New Jersey Institute of Technology studying CS and math and on the Division I fencing team. Currently studying modern C. My resume can be found here.

What I've worked on

Some of these projects don't have public source code for various reasons. The ones that do are linked on my profile.

  • Mechanical Solutions - I've worked at Mechanical Solutions since May 2022. In general I've helped with bringing a modern UI and WPF codebase to VibVue. Recently I've been doing lots of optimizations on video analysis, achieving over a 1000% performance increase in certain areas.
  • Touch by Touch - My main project. TbT is a live scorekeeping and team management service for fencing. Currently it services NCAA meets as well as the NJ high school fencing scene.
  • COOL Compiler - typechecker and optimizing compiler for the COOL programming language. It type checks COOL programs, then generates x86 assembly with a variety of dataflow and performance optimizations.
  • Disco Tower - A game I made in 24 hours for GirlHacks 2024. The central concept is that it is a rhythm-based roguelike, where you can take actions on each beat of the music.
  • Project Unknown - I developed a series of world-class bots that monitored luxury clothing brands for inventory changes. The bots would send restock information to paid members of a reselling group called Project Unknown in real time.
  • King Typer - I worked on this project with a friend for the Romanian national olympiad Infoeducatie. King Typer is a site where you can learn to touch type, practice your skills, and compete with others in a real-time multiplayer environment. Note: site is now down due to Heroku removing their free tier
