Intro
Hey there! I'm Michael McNiel and I'm currently a C# developer at
TIME Manufacturing in Waco, TX. I also am a student at TSTC Waco
working towards my Associate of Applied Science degree in Computer
Programming Technology.
I've been programming professionally and as a hobby for a combined
total of 5 years. I've always wanted to become a software developer
since middle school and, years later, I've decided to pursue my
dream and work towards what I've always wanted to do.
I'm a former Airman in the US Air Force and I love to mess with
anything tech related. I also like to edit videos in my free time
using Adobe Premiere Pro and make YouTube videos either for myself
or others. On top of that, I love to play games that inspired me to
gain an interest in programming in the first place like Halo 3, Star
Wars: KOTOR, and Deus Ex.
Projects
Here is a list of some of my favorite projects I've done. Take a

GitHub page directly!

WheatFree
WheatFree is a gluten-free, mealkit delivery service similar to
other mealkit delivery services such as HelloFresh and
EveryPlate. This project includes full CRUD functionality. Some
include creating new customer orders in a SQLite database,
viewing inventory items and their quantities, editing existing
recipes for customers to order, and removing items that are no
longer being delivered.

Rocky Space
Rocky Space is an asteroids-like game built in MonoGame, a
framework for C#. This game was built from scratch without
assistance from a typical game engine such as Unity or Unreal
Engine. The physics and environment window was created from
scratch as well and not handled by premade assets.

ActiveWear Shirt Designer
The ActiveWear Shirt Designer is a shirt designer page meant to
be placed in a pre-existing website as a new feature. The
designer has different logos to choose from as well as a color
picker to customize your shirt further. It also handles user
orders and gathers required information from the customer.
