A little introduction...
Hey! I'm Aidan and I'm a software engineer. My journey into programming all started with a single class that ignited a spark of sorts. Ever since then I've been hooked on problem-solving and the creative process behind building digital experiences.
I have a fascination with UI/UX that goes way back to my days of building custom World of Warcraft UIs. That passion has stayed with me and drives my approach to not just programming, but life in general - I'm always looking for ways to make things more usable, engaging, and enjoyable.
As a full-stack developer I've dabbled in a variety of languages, from C# to JavaScript, and even delved into the world of PHP. I love the challenge of learning new technologies and applying them to build exceptional solutions.
But it's not just about the code. I'm a hard working team-player by nature. I love nothing more than checking an item off my TODO list. I thrive on guiding others to work together and achieve a common goal.
In my downtime, you'll often find me glued to the screen, consuming content from popular programming content creators like ThePrimeagen and Theo. It's not just about staying up to date with the latest technologies - it's about immersing myself within a community of passionate developers and expanding my knowledge.
So that's a bit about me - a curious, creative, and dedicated software engineer with a love for problem-solving, user-centric design, and continuous learning. Let's build something amazing together!

CEIH Heart Failure Survey System
Initiated by the Commission on Exellence and Innovation in Health's Heart Failure Subcommitte, this project served as my capstone project of my software development degree.
The project required constructing a survey system akin to survey monkey which would allow committe members to build custom surveys to gain specific data from key stakeholders, including clinicians and patients. Additionally, the existing website was rebuilt to improve user friendliness and to allow for the survey system to be integrated.
