Playing Chords in Java

I took inspiration to work on this project from a data structures course I took in my sophomore year at DePaul. What we did was work with some audio libraries from the 4th edition of Algorithms by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne to play a few notes and chords. I thought it would be fun to try and replicate the chords from one of my favorite songs, "I'm So Tired" by Fugazi. GitHub link.

ggLeap Game Launcher

One of my first tasks as a senior tech support specialist was to work on implementing a new PC game launcher in CDM's Gameplay Lab, where students frequently stop by to play games across various platforms. Support for our old launcher was becoming troublesome to keep updated and we wanted to move on to a commercial product that would be easier to use. With some help from the tech team, ggLeap seemed like a good option to look into, especially when considering how helpful its cloud based management software would be. As I've been testing games, launchers, and other software with ggLeap, it looks like it will end up being a great replacement for the Gameplay Lab's current launcher. As of writing this, only a few computers in the lab have ggLeap on them for testing purposes. But, in the future, ggLeap will be on all of the computers for any student to use.

Technical Description: Quicksort

For my technical writing course, we were tasked with creating technical descriptions for incoming freshman with the same major as us. Coming out of an algorithms course the quarter prior, I thought a description of the quicksort algorithm would be great to explain to CS majors who are just taking that first step into their CS studies. Watch my technical description video for quicksort or download my technical specification report on quicksort to the left.
