Hey There!


I’m Chandler, a Computer Science student at Concordia University with a strong passion for programming. Outside of coding, I’m either on the hockey rink, hitting the basketball court, or lost in the rhythm of my favorite music. I bring a positive, energetic and outgoing vibe to everything I do, always eager to learn and grow.

Projects

Classroom Management System

Built a comprehensive grade management system in Java, utilizing object-oriented programming principles to calculate weighted scores, determine letter grades, and generate class report cards for student performance analysis. The system includes modular functions for calculating minimum, maximum, and average scores across multiple assignments and exams, enhancing its reusability and maintainability while ensuring accurate data representation for educational assessments.

higginsinfinity.com

Developed and designed a fully responsive personal portfolio website using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to showcase web design skills, personal projects, and contact details, all within a cohesive design. The website features user-friendly, flexible layouts created with Flexbox, a custom navigation bar with integrated social media links, and precise content alignment for an optimal user experience.

CSV Sorter

Taking hundreds of lines of CSV files, the program scans each individual file, checks for specific conditions, creates objects for each line, and places them in a serialized file, throwing the errored lines into an error file. The purpose of this project is to take the hundreds of lines of each CSV file and organize them into a more user-friendly model.
