Welcome.
Hi! I'm Evan, and I'm currently working as a junior web developer at Queensboro.
On this website, you can find demos and links to some projects I've done. You can also download my resume.
Feel free to contact me at evangd@umich.edu if you have any questions about my experience and/or aspirations.
My Goal
When I first enrolled at the University of Michigan, now my alma mater, my plan was to study computer science. Somewhere along the way, however, I decided to take a break from the coding grind and weigh my options. I left college with a dual degree in History and German, and minors in Computer Science and Creative Writing.
After a year traveling the country and completing service projects with AmeriCorps NCCC, and in search of place to begin my career, I have decided to return to the tech world and carve out a career as a programmer.
In addition to the ~2 years of programming in C++ that I did for my college coursework, I recently took an online course that walked students through the development of a CRUD Web application using the LAMP stack. Currently, I'm working through a comprehensive, open-source web development course called The Odin Project.
Portfolio
Here, you can find a list of coding projects that I've worked on, as well as some of the resources I'm using to learn more about software development.
Projects
