Love and Chaos
Love and Chaos is a blog style website I'm in the process of developing. It's built in five sections, and designed to incorporate more sections as the business grows. For example, it has room for a shop, a forum, or even an AI chatbot as well, depending on which way the customer chooses to build.
Elite Construction
Elite Construction is a website I'm developing for an exterior enveloping company. They needed a full-stack website to transition from a few employees to a large-scale enterprise. Their plan is to build the website over a few years to ensure that it roles out in sync with their planning.
E-mmersion Economics
E-mmersion Economics is a business case study I'm working on to determine the viability of economics tutoring as a business enterprise in Calgary. The website is called a 'minimum viable product', and is intended to showcase a concept to investors in order to raise capital to finance further work.
Guerrilla Teacher, vol. 1
Guerrilla Teacher, vol. 1: The nature and purpose of digital literacy, is a 60 page book that I published on the Internet. The web application is written as a 'Single Page Application' (SPA) in vanilla Javascript, and features an embedded page-scrolling and navigation feature to help manage the incredible volume of text.
Personal Resumé
Online resumés and CVs are the latest tactic in job hunting, allowing job seekers to post a permanent, media-rich resumé at a domain of their choosing, and then routing their job applications from Indeed or Monster to the online resumé, allowing for much greater descriptive detail and a much more streamlined job-seeking process.
Guild Saga
Guild Saga was the first company that I built a professional web application for. They are a video-game company out of Toronto, Ontario, and they needed the flexibility and precision of a full-stack web application to showcase their new video-game, Guild Saga, as well as for managing updates and new-releases for their community.

Persistence throughout the Journey
There's a big difference between the skills required to cross a desert, and those required to climb a mountain. Many entrepreneurs do both, and some even learn to part water. The entrepreneur's journey is very similar to the hero's quest. There is a goal, and that goal must be reached against the ever-present possibility of total oblivion. But that goal is worth it, or else the journey would never happen...
Developing your Creative Self
Creativity is abundant throughout humanity, and is often indicative of a high intellect. Everyone is creative, yet many of us do not realize how creative we are, and then allow this thought to weigh down our self-perception even further. So how to stop this? One place to start looking would be to understand the importance of creativity to the self, and then work outwards from there...
The Grinder
It takes a certain mindset to not only understand that venturing out is a challenging endeavour, but to also appreciate that challenge as well. I wanted to explore the importance of entrepreneurship to the larger economy, but to do so from an individual's perspective. The Grinder looks at how capitalism not only benefits the indivdual, but enriches the community in which it serves as well...
The Economics of Truthiness
An expression around Christmas is that it's better to give than to receive, but did you know that this concept extends well beyond holiday Miracles, and is actually the basis of a powerful Economics concept as well? Come explore the nature of 'opportunity cost' in this article, and learn why rhetoric such as: 'shop local' or 'honest work, honest pay' makes such strong economic sense...
