Hi! I am Logan Wenzel
I like making the computer do things. I make applications in Upstate New York 💻
About Me
For my working experience, I primarily use C++ (80%) and Python (20%) to write code for work. For creating dialogs I have primarily use Qt. When writing Unit Tests I have used cppunit. I would be interested in switching to C# or Java or a similar strongly typed language, but for now, C++ gets the job done. On my own projects, I tend to use Python since it is really fast to get up and running. I infrequently write database queries with Postgres. I have a lot of experience with the build system CMake used for connecting libraries and areas of a large codebase together when building. I also have some experience with setting up and configuring a continuous integration system called BuildBot. This would allow the production software to be tested and built each night for multiple configurations.
Before starting my career, I have worked an internship at a local hospital. During that time I updated an internal food-management web application to SharePoint with JavaScript, C#, and Visual Basic for excel parsing. Before that, I worked with a local church to update their website using their CMS Webpage Maker. I am constantly working to employ proper software development paradigms to ensure high-quality software that is maintainable.
I am a 23-year-old software engineer living in upstate New York. In the future, I plan to move to the Raleigh North Carolina area. I have been coding since I was 17 when I joined the robotics club in high school. Ever since I was hooked by the concept of making computers act out my ideas. I started my Computer Science degree in the fall after graduation in 2015. I went to school at Corning Community College and, after that, SUNY Fredonia. Three years later, I graduated magna cum laude in the summer of 2018. This has allowed me to gain a fundamental knowledge of computer programming, algorithmic complexity, data structures, and much more.
