AIDEN PHILLIPS

An extremely passionate and hard-working IT developer with a strong enthusiasm for information technology and problem-solving in general. While new to the industry, I bring a deep commitment to continuous learning and a genuine love for development work. I thrive in collaborative environments, actively seek out challenges to grow my skills, and am highly motivated to contribute meaningfully to any project. My goal is to gain real-world experience, absorb knowledge from experienced professionals, and apply what I learn.

VR Games

Completed two different VR games with the modeling being done in Unity and the coding in C#. The first simulated a carnival incorporating a range of games with a variety of methods for user interaction utilizing the XR Interaction Toolkit. All modeling and scripting were done by me.

The second was an escape room completed in a group project with two other members. I acted as group lead, modeling all our UI in Figma and creating our design patterns as well as managing group interaction through Scrum. In addition to this, I created the majority of the project (modeling and scripting).

Websites

Over my time at university, I have created a large variety of websites, with the most notable individual project being an electric vehicle charging booking site for a simulated customer. This meant first creating the frontend design myself with a simple-to-understand and easy-to-use UI, as well as an enticing header and site layout in HTML and CSS. Then, I created the backend logic in PHP, allowing for user registration and login, individual user check-in and checkout, location searching (including suggested searches based on incomplete inputs), user searching and management for an admin panel, and payment calculation based on duration spent and location rates. In conjunction with the backend, I created the database in MySQL, ran it on XAMPP, and managed it in phpMyAdmin.

For the largest website group project, we created a soccer tournament manager site. This allowed for a variety of tournament types, team sign-up, individual sign-up and login (player, fan, admin, or team manager), tournament registration, tournament simulation, and a complete admin panel to manage all aspects. The project was created with all the same tools as the previous site: HTML, CSS, PHP, and MySQL, and I acted as overall group leader as well as lead programmer.
