What I'm building.
A running list of the apps, tools, and class hubs I build to support my teaching practice and life.
Collections
Bundles of related apps, always growing.
Collection · 3Design for Social Good (D4SG) Class Apps
A project-based class hub where students design and build real assistive technology for real people, plus the tools we use to do it.
Collection · 6Neuroscience Class Apps
A growing set of interactive apps and review games I am building for my neuroscience class, from hands-on models of how the brain works to fast, competitive review rounds.
Collection · 9Chemistry Class Apps
A growing set of interactive chemistry apps and review games I build for my class, from atomic structure and emission spectra to balancing reactions. Each one turns an abstract idea into something students can see, build, and play with.
Collection · 2Music
The tools I build for the stage and the studio, from a whole band's home base to a one-tap recording booth in your browser.
Apps & Tools
Standalone tools built for class.

Publish Your App

Personal Project
PCT Atlas
The entire Pacific Crest Trail in my pocket: offline maps with GPS for the sections I hike, and a look-down map that fills in mile by mile as I log each stretch. 2,655 miles, one summer at a time.

Surf Check
Today's swell, wind, weather, and tide curve for the four NorCal beaches I actually paddle out at: Bolinas, Dillon, Doran, and Salmon Creek. A shared session journal keeps track of who surfed what and when, so the good days do not get forgotten.
