"itemCaption": "This is my pride and joy. Pixel Planet Today is a passion-fueled 'Design 365' turned-daily project I decided to undertake in July 2019. The daily pixel designs highlight facts about the planet in order to help raise an appreciation for the planet. I have continued to post every day for over a year with no end in sight. On top of the daily posts, I have also wrote blog posts about my journey, created and sold stickers to raise money for environmental causes, and made animated versions of my posts to celebrate follower milestones.",
"itemCaption": "My second art-and-tech-for-the-planet project, Wasted Space is a classic arcade game that drives home the idea of reusing and recycling. In the game, players fly a spaceship through endless enemies and collect materials from destroyed ships in order to upgrade their own. In pixel art fashion, environmental education in the game isn't as in your face as other projects, making it a lot more approachable to casual players.",

"itemCaption": "Between January 2016 and May of 2017, I combined two of my passions into one Undergraduate Research project. I am really passionate about the Earth and going green, and I wanted to use my skills in Web Design to help bring attention to the state of the environment. My study focused on the question 'Why do some college students recycle, and others don't?' I surveyed fellow students at the University of Nebraska at Kearney, and with the results I created an interactive website with the goal of reaching the audience that needed it: college students. For this project, I coded all of the HTML and CSS, created all the graphics, and coded most of the JavaScript.",
