Experience
RecAtlas
A Ruby on Rails, Hotwire, and Stimulus project to help parents from the Greater Vancouver Area find activities from community centers, designed entirely by me.
It uses Tailwind CSS for styling, all the Ruby on Rails 8 stack—including front-end—relies heavily on background jobs, and has search by geospatial coordinates for the activities.

Find My Club
Find My Club is a platform designed to facilitate the search and management of micro and small clubs, usually those composed of many individuals and friends, or those seeking to join one.
