      Find The Line

      A one touch compass/navigation app for iOS I created using MTA's open data. It takes you to the closest subway (or line of your choice) with an extremely simple UI. It's available in Apple's App Store for free download (or buy me a beer). The project took about 6 months, nights and weekends, with some help from a few friends. It has over 4000 downloads from the app store with such steller reviews as:

      "I'm a native New Yorker and I know the subway system quite well. That doesn't mean I know where the closest train is. This is extremely useful for MTA experts and tourists alike."

      This Machine Kills Fascists

      A publically contributed to project, in which I give away free stickers for people to slap on stuff and call it art. A self built responsive website which handles the photo uploads (including an admin tool), where a collection of the photos will be used to curate a book explaining the process.

    • Digital Streaker

      A free advertising tool meant for the little guy. It allows people or companies to add custom logo's and url's to have this bro streak across. I lead a small tech team through a 5 day "hackathon" to get this site up before the superbowl.

    • Motorcycle Helmet Wireless LED's

      A project in the works, which incorporates a series of multicolor LED's on my helmet which display blinker and brake light animations triggered by the rider. Only requires power to listen for signals from the bike. It is wireless and should be up and running soon!

    • Console Log

      A small wrapper for console.log which displays the logs on screen automatically. Excellant for testing mobile and web apps. Owned by my friend Mike, I was only a contributer and part time idea man for this.

    • Can Cole Dance?

      Yes.

    • Cole's Burgers

      A characterized version of myself with lovable and favorable quotes in some of the many voice's that is me.
