Hi, I'm Jacob McKenna
Computer Science student passionate about building innovative software solutions and exploring the intersection of technology and user experience.
About Me
I'm a dedicated Computer Science student with a passion for creating meaningful software solutions. My journey in tech began with curiosity about how things work, and has evolved into a deep appreciation for clean code, user-centered design, and innovative problem-solving.
When I'm not coding, you can find me exploring new technologies, contributing to open-source projects, or mentoring fellow students in programming fundamentals.
Featured Projects
Features booking request forms, automated email sending, a dynamic home page, and custom event packages for clients.
Scrapes postings from Indeed and plots them on an interactive map, letting users explore jobs geographically instead of scrolling through lists. Includes company info, role details, and location-based filtering.
Implemented a perfect-play Tic Tac Toe bot using the Minimax algorithm enhanced with alpha-beta pruning and a transition table. Since Tic Tac Toe is a solved game, the bot can never be beaten and will always force a win or draw from any position.
