Keep Up With Me on Discord
Matt | March 16, 2025
Today, I've finally taken the time to get my personal server back online! I'm also back to work on my projects, like Athena, which is once again available for use on Discord. Want to keep up with my progress and stay in touch? Join my Discord! I'll be happy to support you there - or even just chat. 😄
Site Updates & Project Progress
Matt | November 13, 2023
Over time, I have been slowly giving this portfolio page the makeover that it was due for. Recently, that has included fundamentally reworking the navigation menu system to be... well, an actual system rather than hard-coded per-page. It's also included revisiting old projects. I find that it can become difficult to keep track of one's own projects when actively engaged in learning new computer science concepts and implementing them for classes. That said, I hope to get back to working on independent projects, such as Blackjack, which just received quite the update. Feel free to check it out and let me know what you think!
URI's 2023 EGT Career Fair
Matt | October 4, 2023
What a great experience! I was fortunate enough to be apart of today's Career Fair as both a student seeking opportunity and an organization admin looking to network on behalf of Ram Hacks. Many thanks to all those who were involved in providing this opportunity to us!
2023 Internship Complete
Matt | July 1, 2023
After roughly two months, my first internship with Professor Michael Conti is complete! Throughout this time, I was able to exercise my computer science problem solving skills, creating Python solutions to programming prompts in order to later generate .JSON test case files for the Computer Programming class's Autograder.
3D Printing!
Matt | April 30, 2023
Hey there! Today, I'm super happy to bring back a hobby of mine through the use of both a Raspberry Pi 3 mini-computer and my new portfolio website. Thanks to the OctoPi software and a few third-party plugins, I can now share my prints both during and after their completion. In time, I'll have a small collection of time lapse videos and plan to make a nice little gallery for them, but until then I hope you enjoy the livestreaming feature that's all ready to go!
YouTube Migrated
Matt | January 9, 2020
Hey all! This is a bit of a backdated post, but I thought I would note that all of my YouTube content - which is generally just for fun and not so much for my personal portfolio - has been moved to its own website. If you're looking for old posts regarding that content, feel free to swing by Paradoxician.com! 😁
Happy New Year's 2020!
Matt | January 8, 2020
Welcome to 2020 everyone! It's my first day back on the regular schedule at home after an amazing vacation at Lake Tahoe. There was a lot of skiing and crazy views - I'll probably make a video soon. I hope everyone's 2020 goes well!
We're Back!
Matt | October 24, 2019
Welcome to the brand new update! I've modernized, mobile-friendlied, and all that jazz to improve the site greatly. Now, it's time to do all the epic things like videos, game development, and homework. Lots of homework. Anyway, hope to see you around!
Summer Band!
Matt | August 15, 2019
This summer, a good friend of mine started a band group to play at local nursing homes. Her idea was to bring live music to those who can't so easily access it, as well as create a connection between generations. I was fortunate enough to be a part of this group and enjoyed every moment of it!
