Snyder Ranch (inactive)

This site served the ranch my family owned, built from a field of scrub brush, into a cattle and horse operation that we farmed between 2000-2010. When we sold the farm, I quit maintaining the site and dropped the domain name.

Apps

Food Pantry Helper

This is an application developed with the Windows Universal Platform published to the Windows store designed to assist food pantry volunteers manage paperwork regarding community members served weekly with food and household items.

MindMasterX

I enjoyed playing Fallout 4. In certain situations, it presents users with a word guessing puzzle to unlock terminals. I wrote an AI program to assess the choices, recommend the best guess, evaluate the response of each guess, and iterate until the solution is found. Eureka! This was a fun program written in C# that I then ported to iOS, Android and WP8 using the Xamarin framework.

Mobile Sensor Analysis

During my thesis and dissertation work, I gleaned many of my findings from the results I collected using a purpose built simulation platform. Written in C#, the program heavily uses reflection and other abstraction techniques to allow dynamic, modular development of algorithms that govern the behavior and interaction of mobile sensors with their environment and each other.
