3ichael 7ambertTHE CREATIVE NOTEBOOK

Michael Andrew Lambert Jr. · Colorado

A life made
of many arts.

I’m 3ichael 7ambert. I turn ideas into drawings, photographs, music, games, and stories.

From a pencil on paper to a world you can play in, this is a collection of the things I make—and the places my imagination takes me.

700+ hours of hands-on course material, with 1:1 industry expert mentor oversight, and completion of 4 in-depth portfolio projects.

Notable Projects:

Web Development

Rangeview High School

Certificate: Web Development

I excelled in Web Design I & II as well as Java I and Java II, where I mastered PHP, ActionScript, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Going beyond the basics, I incorporated music into my static-era websites and pioneered disjoined rollovers, enhancing user experience and showcasing my commitment to innovative design.

Notable Projects:

** This Website Divinity was originally made with HTML, CSS and ActionScript (Flash) however due to Flash being deprecated I edited it into JavaScript to keep a form of it alive. However the buttons and and animation aren't as smooth as they originally were
Software projects

Software Engineer

My passion for coding ignited during middle school. It all began with my first line of code in Visual Basic, sparking a journey of continuous learning. Discovering GameMaker further fueled my interest, marking the inception of my game development journey. Delving into GML, I crafted games and honed my skills, even experimenting with TI-BASIC on Texas Instrument calculators.

Formal education introduced me to Web Design I, Web Design II, Java I, and Java II, enriching my proficiency in HTML, CSS, PHP, ActionScript, and Java. Subsequently, I crafted numerous HTML and CSS MySpace themes for local bands, designed portfolio websites for artists, and contributed to projects for non-profits and startups.

While my primary focus shifted towards game development, I recently completed a year-long Software Engineer course to update and refine my skill set, ensuring relevance in today's tech landscape.

Projects

  • Sketchbook

    |

    This project involves a frontend built with React and a backend using Express. The frontend acts as a digital sketchbook utilizing FabricJs. Users can engage in drawing activities, add various objects such as pencils, erasers, and paperclips, and insert shapes onto the canvas. The application allows users to save their creations, export them as PNG files, or load a randomly generated canvas. This project showcases proficiency in frontend development with React and backend development with Express, as well as integration with libraries like FabricJs for interactive drawing experiences.

  • WebCrawl

    |

    WebCrawl is a project focused on scraping data from three distinct websites: ProDrivers, CPC, and Trillium. The scraped data is then aggregated and displayed in a single coherent data stream. This project highlights the ability to extract and organize data from diverse sources and present it in a unified interface. Notably, this project demonstrates expertise in web scraping techniques and the development of applications that integrate multiple data streams. Version 2 of WebCrawl extends its functionality beyond a single source, illustrating adaptability and versatility in working with varied data sets.
    **This is version v2, version v1 used a cleaner interface and was solely ProDrivers, however they outsourced their data stream so I had to adapt for the cause of this project
