Full Stack Developer

Jambo! I’m Marlin Makori. Originally from Kenya, living in Seattle, and working as a Software Engineer Contractor at Short’s Travel Management. My previous background as a Sous Chef has cultivated my leadership, communication, and collaborative skills. These skills as well as my technical knowledge allow me to fit well with diverse teams of different backgrounds and personalities. When I’m not coding or cooking you can find me playing soccer, skiing, rock climbing, attending concerts, cruising on my vintage motorcycle or being a couch potato with my dog Rafiki. Thank you for taking your time to view my portfolio, I hope we get the opportunity to connect.

VIHIGA BERNEDOODLES

I had the pleasure of working with a Bernedoodles breeder to create a website that showcased their adorable and lovable puppies. The goal of the website was to provide information about the breeder's puppies, the breeding process, and the Bernedoodles breed in general, as well as to help potential buyers learn more about the breeder and make a purchase.

CHECKERS

An online version of the classic game of Checkers built using JQuery. The game implements JQuery functionality for users to play against each other. The website features local player vs. player.

UP4GRUBZ

This full CRUD app was created with the mission to eliminate food waste. Users can login to post their extra and/or about-to-expire food so that other users can claim them. Everyone is welcome to browse a list of the posted grubs but they must be logged-in to post or claim grubs. The app utilizes the google places markers API to display a map with the location of posted grubs. Users can add and delete multiple photos of posted grubs. Photos are stored and deleted in S3 buckets based on user activity.
