Hobby Projects

I am not always coding business and professional applications in secure environments. Sometimes I like to just have fun and work on cool open source projects. I am especially fond of Arduino & Raspberry Pi's, as well as HomeLab projects. If its mini or micro and boots, I'm into it.

About Me

I’m Derek Scott, a dedicated Full Stack Web Developer with over 8 years of experience crafting robust web and mobile solutions. My expertise lies in TypeScript, PHP, and UI/UX automation, honed through impactful projects at Packet Digital / Botlink for the U.S. Navy, where I developed secure applications like quad-copter drone flight controllers and ship-based battery management systems in strict government cloud environments. My work at Myriad Mobile and Realtruck.com further sharpened my ability to deliver user-focused applications using React.js, Vue.js, and PHP 8, ensuring seamless front-end and back-end integration.

With a Bachelors of Science in Psychology and another Bachelors Degree in Economics from the University of North Dakota, I bring a deep understanding of user behavior and financial mathematics to my development process, creating intuitive and efficient digital experiences. Known for my upbeat personality and collaborative spirit, I thrive in team settings and am passionate about taking ideas from napkin mock-ups to deployable MVPs. My GitHub Profile: github.com/johnny13 has a lot of other projects and things I've done if you're looking for my coding qualifications.
