When not coding away, I love all things related to food and music, and have been refered to as an offline restaurant search engine.  

On The Side

A curated list of super trendy apps and side dishes, searchable by neighborhood. Built in Rails using the Istagram, Foursquare, and Google Static Maps API's.

jSequencer

A music sequencer, built mainly in Javascript (and jQuery) via Rails. Designed out of a love for vintage drum machines, jSequencer follows the classic step sequencer pattern.  Select some sounds, a tempo, and which steps to play...and suddenly all electronic, hip hop, and modern pop music is born.  It's that simple.  Also the drum sounds are an TR808 sampled through a cassette deck.
