Wander is a MEN Stack app that allows a user to turn their Flickr albums into a map showing the location where each picture was taken along with a graphical representation of the journey taken while snapping photos on that trip. Wander accesses Flickr’s API to grab a user’s Flickr albums, made as efficient as possible by utilizing Oauth with Flickr. When an album is selected, Wander extracts that album’s photo URLs and EXIF location data to build a “trip.”
Wander is still in development. Plans to finish the app include a feed page to show off your trips, and finishing design work for all Wander pages.

I'm a Los Angeles based web developer with a solid foundation in HTML, CSS, Javascript, Node.js, Ruby on Rails, and the MEAN stack. I have a background in engineering, working at Marine Corps Systems Command in Quantico, VA for three years where I focused on technical writing, test planning/execution and functioning as a technical advisor for multiple project officers. In my off-time, I started to teach myself basic web technologies which revived the enthusiasm I had found for coding in college. Once I moved out to Los Angeles, I acted on that enthusiasm and started at General Assembly to build up my skills in order to become a professional web developer. I bring with me an engineer's mindset, including a history of problem solving, positive client interaction, and the ability to effectively communicate technical concepts to non-technically minded audiences.
