About

Hello! I'm Francis Cawog

I'm a full-stack software engineer from Brooklyn, New York. My passion of helping others and my curiosity to learn new things are combined into one as a software engineer. I wish to create technology that will help people and improve their lives.

Previously in school, I was pursuing a career as a pre-med candidate. However, I felt that this was not the correct career route for me. In order to take time to make this decision, I decided on leaving the country and backpack the world for a year. This was a transformative experience for me. I was able to learn better communication, time management, and organizational skills. Most importantly, I was able to make a decision about becoming a software engineer.

I recently graduated from App Academy, an intense 16 week coding bootcamp where I learned new languages and technologies. This course, compounded with my many life experiences, have provided me with the skills to succeed as a software engineer. I am currently seeking a position as a full-stack engineer where I can showcase these skills and work with other like-minded individuals.

In my free time, I enjoy playing sports, photography, video games, traveling, and chess.

Pacer is a social media platform that allows users to connect with other users who have similar workout interests. The Pacer platform helps you connect with people playing your favorite sport at similar performance levels so you can train, bond, and celebrate together.

Geo Path Finder

Geo Path Finder is an engaging geography puzzle game that challenges users to find the shortest path between two countries on a map. The objective is to guess the names of countries that form a continuous path between the given starting and ending countries. Countries are considered connected if they share a border. As users make guesses, the countries on the map change color to indicate their location, and the country names are revealed. The game ends when a complete path is found between the two initial countries. After completion, the game provides users with the optimal path to compare their solution.
