Howdy! My name is William Adcox. I'm a computer engineering major from Houston Texas, but more importantly, I am the LOUDEST and PROUDEST member of the Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of 2027!
I'm currently in the summer between Sophomore and Junior years, and am avidly learning and developing in pursuit of building something truly original yet impactful. In this pursuit, I aim to grasp the skills necessary for an internship and eventual career in web and/or software development.
Consequently, I will be utilizing this summer to tackle personal projects, attain quantifiable results, and solve real-world issues. Additionally, I will be integrating these solutions with a secondary focus on elegance, aesthetics, and user experience.
A series of graphic design projects that I'm creating to teach myself graphic design, color theory, and UI/UX. Once finished, I will be self-publishing it as a zine.
A project for self-guided introduction into full-stack web development. This will utilize web scraping across multiple websites to answer the longstanding question: Is the user's given statement considered normal...?
A Stockfish-inspired tool for Tetris. Machine learning models will train on a recreation of Tetris, which will then be utilized to give optimal piece-placement suggestions and grade a player's gameplay.
Whether you've got an idea to build, want to share thoughts on design and code, or just want to reach out, here's where you can reach me:
